gazzar15 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 I am fitting my 25-06 into a new laminated stock, as it came out of a Mcmillan A5 which had no mag cutout I bought a Remington long action bottom metal to fill in the bottom of the laminated stock. It doesn't fit!!! I notice that it seems to be longer than my screw holes by about a little more than half an inch. Does that mean that a short action bottom metal will fit? There is another smaller diameter action screw that fits through the 40x trigger guard. Any help appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzar15 Posted May 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 I think I have just answered my own question. Although the 25-06 is a long action cartridge it would appear that because my rifle is a single shot only it has been re-barrelled in this calibre. I just checked the action against a short action BDL stock and but for the barrel not fitting into the sporter channel the screw holes and inlet for the recoil lug are a perfect match.
