Bedding a 2213 aluminum stock??? Has anyone?

The foam padding is very flat and the stock if very finicky about torque setting. Just wondering if anyone has ever glass bedded this stock for a perfect molded fit?

Any other successful mods I'd like to hear about too.

Thanks,

I've read that it ok to wear corrective lenses for your normal distance prescription. Gehmann's recommendation! They say they don't guarantee you'll see any improvement if you have + factors to help you see the front sight.

New Rifle Setup....

Good Question. This process helped me. Not real scientific though. Just having a starting point is key...Then mainly trial and error. Lots of it! 1. Starting point...hold rifle upright. place hand on grip with trigger finger in place. set butt in crook of the elbow. adjust buttplate to fit snug into...

Proper Cant..??

Hi Adrian, I had the same exact problem you are describing. I'm suspecting your stock had the deep fore-end? If so, mine did too (1810 stock). Very good, but slightly less suitable for prone shooting. I discovered I was trying to have the handstop out too far. When I shortened it and made the sling ...

yes 1.2 is what was recommended to me and I like it. 1.2 will be slightly thicker than the pink Anschutz inserts.

Hi John, You have asked a very good question. One that I asked a fellow recently. The answer I got was due to the tension of the sling and angle of the arms the trace most likely wouldn't be perfectly vertical. I'm not sure what all you have done to tweek your position, but it's very critical to pro...

MWerks guide is the best along with an Ivy polished SS .187 one piece rod. Jeff Madison at Mwerks makes the guide to fit the .187 Ivy rod perfectly. Guide is $35, rod is $50.

Just do a search for Ivy cleaning rods. and Mwerks.

My 2 cents!

I found a used cordura hardback and gave it a try. I didn't like it. I think next time I'd go Leather or leather/cordura combo. The sleeve around my left bicep of the cordura coat was extremely tight. I tried a friends leather coat and didn't seem so bad. One issue I might have been dealing with was...

I remember it like screwing on a lid to a jar. Righty tighty, lefty loosey while pushing or pulling the bullet where I want it. Easy to visualize the normal screw in or out direction for me.

I sure would. But I'd be concerned about the loading port too. I'd hate to have a nice new action with the loading port of the 40X. Yuck! Id like to see and feel the triggers too. I have a Jewel on my 40X I use for benchrest and it good for that, but I have gotten use to my Anschutz two-stage for po...

Bottom up. When I take a breath the sights move down off the target. As you exhale the sights come back up. That's how I check my NPOA too. I close my eyes as I take a breath and towards the end of my breath i open my eyes and see if i'm on target. Not sure if that is correct, but that is what I hav...

G&E Stocks???

How many G&E users here, What do you have to say about their stocks compared to others? Are the adapter blocks a setback to the stock if using a round 54 action?

Thanks,
