    M40 Remington sniper

    From the books, I see that the bedding compound is Bisonite.

    I am looking for the same Bisonite as was used in the original M40 by the USMC.

    Today there is a different compound called Bisonite. At least that is what I am told.

    Is there original formula Bisonite available?

    Thanks

Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    I wanted to duplicate the bedding in the original M40.

    No sense in getting it wrong. I will look some more.

    Thanks for the reply
