Wooden Stock Question??
« on: February 15, 2009, 04:16:16 PM »

The barrel doesnt sit right and one side theres a gap in between the stock and barrel on one side and on the other theres not one. what could i do about this??

Sounds like it needs a bedding job. If you're fairly handy, you can do it yourself, or it's NOT an expensive job to have it done by a gunsmith. I'm fairly handy myself, but chickened out on both of my Win Mdl 70's and had them professionally done by a competent gunsmith. Sometimes I'm "all thumbs" and didn't want to hose up a perfectly good stock, so I paid a pro to do it. It was well worth the expense.
