[QUOTE="Hntbambi, post: 477812, member: 12797"] If you need a decent varmint gun, they are very capable. Sleeving was a way of making a Rem 700 or 40x a competitive BR gun. The actions are too flexible with the big tubes to shoot screamer groups consistently so they glued them into pipes. Is this gun a glue-in or does it use standard bedding? It is or at least was common practice to glue the action into the stock using bedding compound on BR guns to make them more consistent. It does not hurt the gun but if you want to remove the stock from the barreled action, it makes it a bit more work. [/QUOTE]
