I am going to practice on an old JC Higgins .22 then, my buddy has an old Savage in 30.06 that he said I could practice on untill I get good enough to bed both my Rem. 700s. One is 30.06 BDL and the other 22-250 SPS. The 30.06 has a wood stock. The stock is nice and pretty so I wanted to get a composite stock for it and bed it. The 22-250 already has a composite stock. What about the silly putty to practice with?
