always looking for the best trigger (s)
My photo shows a Ruger No 3 that has a heavy 308 Win barrel, stock is birdseye maple which I don't care to work with again. Had to drill both the butt stock screw hole and the fore-end 45 degree screw hole too. Trigger is the old Canjar single set trigger with the small trigger that pops out when set.
Second is my breech seat 32-40 Win Hi Wall with original Winchester double set triggers
which are just as good as Mauser if not better.
Bottom is a Remington rolling block that I bent the lower tang, also made a nice trigger and sear for a reallyAttachment 101555 nice pull. Stock was California walnut blank which I did use my mill for inletting the tangs

Sleeving the Inletting Screws
As mentioned, the inletting guide screws were a sloppy fit in the stock. I can't imagine inletting without putting the action into the stock the exact same way every time. In order to do this, the screws need to fit the stock snugly.
First we have this massive gap:

In the back it's not as bad but still there's enough slop to let the screw go in cockeyed:

With the large gap in the front, I made a sleeve out of polypropylene to make up the difference:

The back was close enough that I just used a layer of electrical tape. This can be replaced as needed if it wears out. This helped quite a bit with the alignment:

Now I just have to wait for the rifle to get here. It should be here in just a few days once the seller passes it off to UPS.
