Default RE: I am about to blow up my 30 - 06

here is the whole story of how I got the gun. I went to a gun shop that was closing it doors. I was looking for a .243. found a .243 and saw the 30 - 06 setting next to it. it was $100 less then the .243. It was used when I bought it. I ended up taking about 10 years off from hunting (jobs, college, and got married).

I am going to take a look at the bedding, I found the ring screws where loose, I am going to pick up some lock tight and fix that, they maybe stripped. thinking about replacing the base and ring too. good thing I got 2 other guns to fall back on.

I took a real close at the bedding and where the barrel meets the stock. there is a space about mm one side and the other is almost touching. took it out of the stock, I see rubbing in three places. the bedding at a crease up the middle of the stock, took a lightly damb paper towl and cleaned the bedding a little.

hope this helps a little more.
