Thread: Rifle stock

Plenty of meat there? Take it lower and get it mint?

Can you been the tang down further? Or thin it down, or flash it with copper? Or start again?

If I took it lower would it hurt if I cut the bolts a bit shorter and re threaded them? I think if I go lower then action screws will be a bit long but cutting and re threading really is no problem to me if its ok to do so?

I'd say shorten hold down bolts

I just looked and may get away with it if I do shorten the bolts it'll be a couple of mm by the looks but not much.

You're doing really well for someone who thought they'd fuck it up! I do love macrocarpa, I bet your shed smells great now! Are you working off a plan or just sort of winging it?

Winging the shit out of it so far!

Can't take all the credit this legends helped heaps. His 3-7min videos are just long enough for my attention span

Not trying to be mean Toby but what about grab another hunk of macra and do the inlet first.

What's his name? I might have to give this a go when I get my workbench set up. The stock on my American doesn't exactly scream "lovely homemade stock".

This is the test stock, I will redo one in walnut hopefully.
