| My girlfriend got me a Boyd's thumbhole stock for my Savage B-mag for Christmas. I've got it on, but the barrel touches the end of the stock on the left side. I see two ways of fixing this. 1 - glass bed the first few inches of the barrel after the action. Or 2 - inlet the end of the stock to clearance for the barrel. My initial thought is to bed the first few inches. This will have a better appearance since it won't thin the forend on the left side. My concern is that this is manipulating the barrel to fit the stock and that may have an adverse effect as compared to fitting the stock to the barrel. Thoughts? |
