RE: Floating Barrels?
You know I just got a older rem 700 1981 vintage 7mm-08. Its pressure bedded. Has a bull barrel and real nice walnut stock. My standard operation is to break out the dremel tool and get to work, but it shoots good as is, so I will leave it that way until it starts stringing or something. First time for everything.
Good thing you left it alone not broken leave it alone

You need to get married
Sorry had to get that off my chest, I got one girl who's biologic clock is ticking who's telling me if I don't put a ring on her finger soon, she gone. And we have only been seeing each other for short 2 years. I keep telling her they are doing miracles these days with babies and being 38 and having a baby is no big deal. And ex wife who constanting is wanting to come back telling me she's changed. Right[:'(]. I think my time fiddling with my guns is time well spent compared to working on another divorce.

RE: Floating Barrels?
About the stocks. The synthetic stocks put on production grade rifles don't hold a candle to a good walnut stock. My take on the whole 'synthetic stocks are more accurate' attitude that people have is that they can be more more accurate if made right, and made very stiff. manufacturers have used synthetic stocks because a plastic injection molded stock is much cheaper to make than a walnut one, and they can claim that it doesn't have any of the disadvantages of wood, yet can charge the same price and therefore make more profit on the gun. A synthetic stock worth owning will usually cost as much as a new remington 700 itself, the plastic stocks I've seen on factory made hunting rifles as far less than inspiring. So, Bigcountry, I won't be sending you any walnut stocks to burn, and I sue won't burn them myself

BC, I got married at 35 and my daughter was born when I was 38. She's beautiful and healthy. Tell em it's no big deal.
PS - I guess I should say that my wife is 22 days younger than me.
