[QUOTE="bdyal1972, post: 1878481, member: 50039"] When I got started in 93 with a browning a bolt II in 338 win mag with a flimsy crap Tupperware stock. It shot moa or less if you didnt sling up, shoot from bipod on uneven ground or uneven stumps... Otherwise hit or miss up to 5 moa off at 500 yards. NOT KNOWING ANY BETTER!!! I took a piece of steel 5/8" wide x 1/8" thick and ran it from the front action bolt to the front sling stud. I took another piece FROM THE REAR ACTION BOLT AND CUT INTO THE PISTOL GRIP INSIDE THE PLASTIC TO KEEP IT LEVEL... I used acraglass steel epoxy and bedded the ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE STOCK.... YES it was homely looking and totally shop made... BUT IT WORKED.. I have since done this on Remington savage and winchester stocks... It works great and allows bipod to be used in the field expeditiously if you tie he steel together with the sling stud threaded into it... Make sure to use the strongest epoxy bedding you can find... I even used fiberglass steel body filler at a friends house... Good luck!!! [/QUOTE]
