stock plank. You will find an offset of about 5/16 inch is almost always possible and usually you can get
more.
This offset or what they call were cast on in the case of the left-handed shooter is taken in the opposite
direction and made the constant for left handed shooters, and I have found his most comfortable for the
average shooter. When you have everything marked you now have a continuous line on which to base
your layout for the leading of the stock. The first thing that you would do is established the location of the
front guards grew whole which is easy because you can check the action against her stock profile
template and then get a measurement from either the front for back of the blank. When you have the
whole marked you can then drill the hole at right angles to the top of the blank in both directions. If you
have it a drill press it would be the best way to drill the holes, but be sure to drill land that right angles to
the top of the blank in both directions. If you have they angle vise and a drill press you can drill the holes
almost perfect. Use a 9/32-inch drill bit if you are using a Mauser action or any other parallel guard
action they can also be drilled at this time. Depending on the type of the action you will have to vary the
size of your drill bit bus be sure the holder holes flow are located on the centerline of the blank.
When you have the holes drilled currently blank over and then let the rear guard first. You might need to
make another template of the band thin metal or fiber so that you can have the outline of the rear guard
and mark it on the stock in relation to your holes that you have drilled. After the template is cut out mark
around it so you will have the size on the stock. In most trigger guards that have an integral magazine
box on them, the first thing that you need to do is to outline the dimensions of the box on the bottom of
the stock. This will be done on inside of the rearguard outline that you have drawn were traced on the
wood. Next, you can then remove this would either with a chisel or drilling down the along the edges to
remove the excessive wood. If you have it, you can use fairly small metal cutting bits in your drill press to
drill out the magazine opening following the outline of the box closely to leave a minimum of chiseling
and filing to shape it up the.
If you use the above the wood should come out after cutting in a block, and all you need to do is to
smooth it up with a chisel and rough files enough to admit the magazine box hallway. I always have a
