[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1546873, member: 10755"] This is how I do them: Pull barrel, throw recoil lug in bin. Blueprint the action, hone the lugs once everything is trued. Re-barrel with original barrel, or new, after machining barrel shoulder to suit Tubbs 1/4” thick recoil lug. Tape up front, sides and bottom of recoil lug, wax everything up well and skim bed the action and full bed the recoil lug. Once cured, strip trigger assembly, replace with Calvin Elite trigger. Make any adjustments required, go shoot it. I have a custom shop 5R here unfired with the new HS-Precision stock sans palm swell, not liking it, so I need to replace it with an old style. Only dry fired it so far, needs trigger replaced ASAP and bedding done, hope it’s a shooter after that. If it isn’t I will do the above to it too. Edit to add: I do not use the stock bottom metal, I swap them out so often I forget I do it. Lol. I use PT&G stainless bottom metal, even on VSSF II models. If it’s a CM model I cerakote them black. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
