I have Remington 700 Short Action in .308. The stock finally came in and I just
had to had some new glass to it. So far I have the barrel mounted in the stock
and working on the magazines. The magazines for this stock have some issues and need to be modified to help the bullets feed into rifle easier without scratching the brass. I have also ordered a bolt handle extension that has
yet to come in. Anyways, the pictures below are the process with the first
pic being what it used to look like.
Original Rifle Stock: (Cat is having a ball with the box the stock came in )
New Stock mounted and Glass to mount later: (You can see my dual presses in the background - Too hot in Florida to work in the garage right now..)
New Stock and 20 round magazine inserted, the seven round still needs some
work done on it.....
Hopefully 1,000 is not out of the question now. Used to be able to ding the gong 3 or 4 times out of 10. With my new handloads and the stability of this
platform, I am hoping for 7+ at 1,000 yards... Will know in October when
we go to the Manasota shooting complex in Bradenton, FL.
The proper name is Manatee Gun and Archery Club but our group calls
it the Manasota Shooting Center.
