I didn’t glue my action in to the stock, so that’s a plus! Behind the lug, the flat of the action and the tang around the rear screw looks good. In front of the lug, due to the “step” in the stock and the action being flat the compound didn’t make contact. Do I mix up more and build it up to the...
Thanks for the pics. My 8 month old didn’t sleep long enough for me to finish the job today haha. Hopefully tomorrow I can give it a go!

I have it pretty well floated and everything prepped. I’ve learned that my Dremel skills leave a lot to be desired, but the surface is definitely “roughed up” haha. Last question before I mix up the jb. Do you let it cure the full 24 hours before trying to separate or do you do it earlier to do...
Good info, thanks! From what I’ve read, I don’t want to bed behind the lug. Just leave that surface bare for the lug to contact? Is that consistent with how you guys do it?

Planning on picking up a Dremel to help remove material and scuff up the plastic. I did a test run yesterday with a piece of scrap flat bar and a piece of 1/8” plastic to make sure the jb weld and shoe polish were going to work. Came apart easily and the jb stuck well, so that’s what I’m going...
Thanks guys! I’m not sure what to do on the recoil lug. There is no “channel” on this ramline stock. It’s just a step that the rear of the lug sets against, nothing at the front of the lug. I’m wondering if removing some material under the lug and bedding the front of the lug will be enough to...
10 shot groups are about 2.2” at 100. 5 shots right around an inch. So it’s not awful but definitely room for improvement. It’s not the factory stock, so I wouldn’t say there’s a pressure point, but the barrel contacts the sides of barrel channel for the last 6” or so.

I recently picked up a Ruger M77 tang safety as a project to work on. It came with a Ramline stock so I’m trying to make the best out what I have to work with. The stock is fairly stiff but the fit is rather loose. I have never bedded an action before so I have been researching heavily, but...

I’ll have to see if I can find mine. It would have been from about 2002 and Washington state. Pretty sure I still have it.

What color is everyone running? My current setup doesn’t match my pants, probably going to sell it for a loss in the classifieds and get the matching color.

Mine were pretty snug, but I twisted them with pliers and they came out. Almost seemed like they had a little glue on them.
