[QUOTE="Punisher, post: 1052260, member: 76832"] I wasn't sure to put this under Gunsmithing or Photos, but here we go. I decided to build on a model 70 action since I had it and I shot the barrel out. I am using the factory stock, but replacing the barrel with a X Caliber in 6mm. From the factory, I am really disappointed with the bedding job, the material is soft and squishy around the rear action screw... Completely in ideal. I installed one pillar on the front and am machining one to fit the rear that is square and tapered. I have opened up the barrel channel to fit my medium Palma fluted barrel (23" long) and the barrel will end up being 20 1/2" after chambering. [/QUOTE]
