Thanks, but it'd cost less to use a few rounds of birdshot in plastic bags.Originally Posted by 8mm RUM

This is an awesome way. Less material for given weight because of the density of Tungsten. Brilliant material!

Melt some lead, pour it into sections of copper tubing, drill the stock and slide in the copper tubing.
Easily removed if you dont glue it in.
Is the drill bit inserted and left as weight?
Drill bit is used to "drill the hole". Never considered leaving in in place "because",I might have a need for it later, to drill another hole.
Use a plastic Zip (sandwich bag) with lead shot in it. Lay it across the butt stock to see how much weight will get you where you want to be.
Do the same across the barrel. Adjust the amount of shot till you're happy.
Oz never gave nothing to the Tin Man, that he didn't already have.
Yeah, the M2/M35 high speed steel in drill bits is not the best size/weight ratio. As stated above, regular shot & Lead is much better. This is why I gave the link for various Tungsten weights. Tungsten is among the 10 heaviest metals; just shy of the top 5! Much heavier than Lead even. Easiest way when size/space is limited.
