Broken axis brought back to life
So I managed to pick up a very lightly used axis 22-250 from my brother a while back, for free!!!
The only problem was that the stock was broken in half at the the wrist or trigger, and this is what I got to work with

Well after numerous searches I stumbled upon this forum and saw all the possibilities and transformations made to these rifles.
I ended up drilling 2 holes on both sides of the stock. 4 holes total in the butt end and 4 holes by the trigger

I also drilled bigger holes underneath the trigger guard

I purchased a 3/16 inch threaded rod and cut it into 4 pieces. I then epoxied the four pieces into the holes and pieces the stock together and held by hand, do it did not get twisted

After it set and maintained its shape I began to fill in the holes underneath, surrounding the trigger

And then installed the trigger guard to make sure it was still in alignment and not contorted.
I let the stock sit and cure for an hour and decided to reinforce the fore end as posted by fgw_in_fla.
