Mates:

I would direct this question to anyone who has accurized their No.4 using the wood-patch to receiver draws method. My questions are:

How can you tell when your receiver draws are worn and needing replacement?

Will hard maple wood work as a patch? My guess is that it will.

I know that the patch is beveled....how can you tell when your fit-up of draws to receiver is correct?

What other fore end work is done at this time? Any shimming or changes to forward band or mid-foreend center point?

Are thre any "Tips & Tricks" when doing this work?

What kind of changes to accuracy can be reasonably expected, assuming a correctly done job?

Thanks!

Grant
