    Nicely done..... Now that you've finished practicing on that one, are you ready to start on mine? I mean, after all,.... I have been waiting quite a while

    Very nice! What ever your skill or profession is, at least you know you can always have a career in Axis / Edge stock making.

    I see you've taken your addiction to the next level. Well done!

    Re: 22-250 Axis with new stock.

    By the way, What's that round yuk-a-puk on the barrel? Is that one of those vibration damper thingies I read a little about?

    Last stoopid question. Does it work or do whatever it's supposed to do?

    I won the rifle in a raffle and a door prize too. The door prize was the yuk-a-puk (love the name) and slip-on recoil pad. Does it work? It hide the 1 inch barrel channel it work for that. ;D

    Re: 22-250 Axis with new stock.

    Hey RSG - I was at the range today & noticed the guy next to me was shooting a Rem .243 with one of those yuk-a-puks on the barrel.
    I struck up a discussion about it, asking what it did. He responded with what he thought it was supposed to do & said it didn't do anything.
    10 minutes go by & he's standing behind me saying "look at my target!", with an air of excitement to his voice. I swing my spotter over & notice his 1st target looked a little like a tight buckshot pattern - His second target - Nice grouping!

    He's shooting 100gr Rem Core-Lokt store bought stuff & getting a nice tight .75" group.... TWICE!. If I hadn't seen this with my own 2 baby blues, I would have called BS in a loud clear voice.
    He said he had moved that gizmo about an inch at a time toward the muzzle. With it only about 2.5" away from the stock, this thing actually made a difference.

    Now, I'm not gonna run out & buy one tonight but, I would encourage you to have a go at it & let us know. It kinda sorta sparked my interest..... quite a bit.

    He even went over to one of the 200yd lines and came back with a target that had a tight, real tight 1" pattern of 4 shots, dead nutz center of his target.
    I would really like to see if there's any consistancy to those yuk-a-puks or whatever the heck they are called.
    Let me / us know. It is kinda amusing, to say the very least, that the accuracy of a rifle can be modified in a positive manner by adding & adjusting a rubber gadget on the barrel.
    Thanks for listening.

    Bobfortiers pics helped me with my stock build, I added some that I hope will help someone else.
    I was worried about the action to bottom of mag latch .765 dimension, I made the washer and pillar as one. This is the drawing I made for it.



    I added a alum plate to the rear of the mag bend part. Hooking to the wood seamed weak.

    I milled the trigger guard out of a .75 x 1.50 block of alum.





    Hope this will help you if you make a stock too.

    Here's the missing image that shows the magazine from the bottom.
    I copied and modified the picture link to work with the new forum.

    Geezz.... That looks more like a show piece or a piece of furniture. it's too nice looking to shoot.

    I like the way you made the hand grip part thicker. That's the problem I have with my "Flexible Flyer". It's too small in diameter for my monster mits. I spent a considerable amount of time doctoring my Edge stock to make it less flexible. It's good 'n stiff but feels too short & small to me.

    Ok.... now you've heard my complaints, you know what i need for the stock you'll make for my 25.06.... Carpathian curly maple for wood will be OK.

    Y'all have a safe 4th of July.
