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

that is what I am going to do. I just talked to my wife about it. She told me to just take it to the gunshop I work with all the time. It should not be that much. I was in there when a guy picked up his gun that just got refinished and some other work done. The cost of the work plus I think some shells he bought for it came up to $52 something.

when I ever get all the damn chit fix, I am going to buy some rounds I found for $11 just to check and save my reloads when I know it working.

Loosen the action screws. Take 4 or 5 dollar bills and put them together underneath the barrel (couple inches back from the front of the stock). Then tightenthe screws up. Remove bills and check again to see if it is floating now.

ok, some I left out when I start the whole thing. I am the second owner of the gun, I bought it 10 years ago from a gun shop, so I don't know how it was don't know how it was cared for before I got it. I try to baby my guns as much as possible. did not fire it much between then and now, last year was the first year I hunted with it. (used a 12 ga and my dad's 30 - 30 in the past) took it out one time last year and shot it just to sight. it was with many times this year. I did not know enough at the time to look for problems. I know alot more now. if I can't find a problem or don't know where to start looking. I will just ask.
