[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1086911, member: 30671"] We get so wound up in "big picture" stuff, the little things only reveal themselves along the way. The rifle came with an old Weaver 4X with the television style wide screen that was popular for awhile, in a set of rings with no name brand, and stripped screw heads. I ordered a rail that EABCO makes to clamp on the existing rib. Looks good, but I have to remove the rear sight. Not a problem, just had not considered it. I also ordered a Hick's Harmonizer, something I've wanted to trial for awhile, but no #1 to try it on. As it sits the entire fore end is glass bedded, and in contact the entire length. I haven't seen this work all that well, but again not an issue, just the things I don't see until I get into a project. Typical of my "Goldilocks" approach to seeking just right. Or not leaving well enough alone if you prefer. Looking at a cartridge that's worked well for 100 years, and thinking "I wonder what a little straightening and a 40 degree shoulder do." LOL! [/QUOTE]
