I am planning to buy a new Ross Featherweight Thumbhole stock for a .243win build I am working on and I need a little clarification.
I know (at least I think) I need the following :
Stock
Acra-glass epoxy kit
Bedding Pillars
Aftermarket recoil lug (any particular one considered best???)
Now...the questions
1. I notice there are long pillars,short pillars, and combo pillar sets. Which one should I be buying for this? - My understanding is that for best results I should be glass bedding the action,stock and recoil lug and free floating the barrel.
2. Is there a particular recoil lug that is considered superior to others?
3. Am I missing anything else??
4. I am going from factory wood to the laminate stock, so I shouldn't need any new screws, right?
This is my first time trying this and I am trying to build it into a Varmint/Deer combo rifle (it eventually will probably become a strict varmint gun with heavy barrel - but that is for another time)
Any help here would be appreciated, as well as any tips since this is my first time doing this. I will be ordering the stuff for the switch shortly but I just want to make sure I have everything I need and that I understand this correctly before I spend the money.
Thanks guys
