Couple of pillars for the stock to make it metal on metal tightening.

Need to drill holes in the stock for the action bolts. One of the previous trips we drilled and tapped a rear action bolt hole into the action.

Then bedding, keen to learn all about how that is done.

Once I get the completed rifle back I am going to seal, prime and paint the stock.

Nice work EBF. Years ago I pimped my Omark but not to the workmanship standard yours is coming out at. Same as you I drilled and tapped a hole just fwd of the trigger and pulled down on that screw and the king screw. The action back from the rear new rear screw is totally floating. Also added a Jewel trigger. Decent stock/bedding/trigger made a major difference to its performance.
Just a matter of waiting now for September....

Yup, counting the days !

Last time SSR had the rifle he lightened the trigger to 850g, wasn't aware of the Jewel trigger option, only knew about Davies.
