[QUOTE="slas, post: 1372997, member: 103784"] My most recent attempt was on a Tikka Forest 260, I just like the wood stocks. I added stock and pillar bedding, replace the recoil lug, bottom metal (was plastic) and mag. Modified mag and bolt throw to use long loaded Berger 140's up to 3.0 COAL. Adjusted the trigger down and topped it with quality rail, rings and a Nightforce. Still breaking it in and experimenting with various loads but show's promising groups at 250 yard range (all I have at this time). What other general upgrades could one do to improve it (outside things like barrel replacement)? Also, how does a properly bedded wooden stock with pillars compare to the higher dollar replacement stocks? It just seems like the wooden stock done right would have all the same advantages, and I wrong? [/QUOTE]
