    Another thing to check on an older rifle is the mainspring (firing pin spring) as old springs can get soft and cause inconsistent ignition which will give fliers. Happens occasionally on a new rifle...

    My 601 243 had a pressure pad at the front of the foreend, but the stock must also have warped over the years as it was pressing in the side of the barrel too. Sanding off the side contact helped....

    123074 The Tikka Model55 Sporter has the most comfortable rifle stock I have ever tried. It is so easy to shoot with precision. I believe the Australian Defence Force utilized them for a while as...

    I would take the bull by the horns and trim it to 20" to get rid of the pitting, and you would get a recrown at the same time in any event. 2 birds with one stone. The .243 in 20" performs pretty...

    I've got a Baikal, had a H&R "Handi" Rifle, and a TC Encore. The Handi is OK but fairly "un-refined" would be as kind as I'd describe it (the Rossi is worse). The TC Enchore is OK but dammed heavy,...

    Another option for the OP, Franco Pedretti folding rifle in 357 magnum. I think built of a single folding shotgun frame. Very rare though, but not expensive. One just sold on an Aus classifieds for...

    I know the term 'agricultural' gets thrown around a lot on here in regards to the Baikal stocks, but with a bit of work that can look quite nice. This is my .308 Baikal. Buddy of mine did all of the...
