[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1711000, member: 10755"] Hi all, Have just come across (CHEAP) a Win Model 70 EW in 338WM with one of the four holes out of whack with the rest. Now, it will screw a base down, though you can feel it bind slightly as you snug the screw. Normally, I would just align everything and drill & tap to 8-32, which I still might do if I get my fixture back I lent out a while back. My question is, how successful is filling and drilling on a stainless action, as I have never attempted it? Is the weld/EDM visible after doing so? Cheers. [/QUOTE]
