[QUOTE="Privi457, post: 1934523, member: 114626"] Don't use resin alone as it has no strength. Get fiberglass mat at auto parts, mix it into the resin, a gooey mess, and pack it into the butt stock. Route out the fore end to accept a 3/8" threaded rod and goop it in place with the same stuff. Cover the bbl with release agent and put 2 wraps of electrical tape around it at the tip to center the fore end around the bbl. Tighten up the floor plate screws and let it cure. Now you'll have a stock you can butt stroke a bear with. I did 5 Marlin XLs and they were rock solid and unaffected by fore end pressure. [/QUOTE]
