    Plenty there to chew on.
    BTW while we're on it, when in the fitting process do you fit the collar, I did a No4Mk2 last week and the wood was a bit chewed by the time the forend was fitted. So I had to relieve the trigger guard area a bit to get the trigger guard to sit flat again.
    Also I was fitting a forend that had a very tight fitting end around the muzzle. I relieved it a bit so that I could tell when the barrel was centred of its own accord (relieved by 1 mm or so in width). Was/is there any trick to this,ie. how do you tell the barrel is naturally centred in a factory forend where the muzzle end is securelycentred with no play left and right by the barrel channel?
    And if you're reading this Peter, how long does it take you to fit up a forend perfectly from say a new forend or a newly patched one? I've found some are taking me a long time... and some are taking me FOREVER. Still, they seem to come out shooting right, which is the aim of the game.[COLOR="black"]
