Hogue overmoulded stocks with full bedding block #5438168 07/19/11 OP Campfire Regular Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 798 Anyone out in that location run these on their hunting rifle?? I was looking to get a MCSwirley for my Ruger Hawkeye BUT with chose to get with a Hogue with the full length bedding cake - effectually half the cost of the McMillan. It wont look at wink equally the McSwirley - only should make my 270 shoot a bit better than with the manufacturing plant stock.

You could do that get-go and then if you are not getting optimum results yous could try freefloating it. I run a hogue overmolded stock (factor stock) on my fn pbr xp 300 wsm that is just pillar and glass bedded and it does a good job. They are pretty heavy and kind of bulky. They do help with soaking upwards recoil though. I try to stick with the basics, they do and then well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it washed with manner. You want to come across an creature driblet correct at present? Shoot him in the ear hole.

I have two Howa 1500 in 223 and 243 which have the normal pillar bed Hogue'due south and am happy with these - but for the ruger , decided to splurge on the total bed version. Got to take information technology out to the range and run into how the 130 grain Federal Premium Ballistic Tips behave with this?

They shoot OK, only the ones with full bedding block weigh effectually 3 lbs. The ones with pillars weighed 2.75 lb. Not just heavy, but chunky and clunky. For about the aforementioned money I replaced the terminal one with ane of these www.hightech-specialties.com Shoots only as good and merely weighs 1.v lbs. Near people don't really want the truth. They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

I had to adjust after the first shot at 160 yds with my 300 wsm, the other 9 were alright though : Mmmmmmmmm non bad shooting at all in that location bsa!!!!!! Thanks Gus, one thing that I had to practice to become this thing to shoot skilful and consistent is skim bed and put some bedding nether the sleeping room area (about i"). I've heard you lot may have to do this to the total bedding block 1 too. Just something else to continue in mind. Here'south what I had to practice to mine, just it was well worth information technology: Here'due south what it looked like earlier the bedding: Good luck with it. I try to stick with the basics, they do and then well. Zippo fancy mind you, just plain jane will get information technology done with style. You want to encounter an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole.

I know some guys accept had expert luck with these things in factory grade, but I tried and tried to become a good load and the all-time I could do was 1 ane/2" groups at 100 yards with my 308 win. I drinking glass bedded this affair and now it shoots lights out. Take a await: [img]http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x401/chiefbsa/001-five.jpg[/img] [img]http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x401/chiefbsa/002-4.jpg[/img] [img]http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x401/chiefbsa/015-1.jpg[/img] It'due south also freefloated and shoots pretty good now. Didn't know if your hawkey had the wood stock on information technology or the synthetic but this is what I do to mine if the mill pressure (at the forend) bedding isn't working. I endeavour to stick with the basics, they do so well. Aught fancy heed you, merely evidently jane will get it done with style. Y'all want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole.

Had to exercise a fiddling excavation though : I think that the African comes with a walnut stock or a Hogue condom unit of measurement. Further onto that, I take only ordered a Hogue stock with the full bedding block for my Hawkeye as the standard stock (synthetic) didnt leave the barrel free floating - and caused vertical stringing of shots. I trust that the Hogue unit volition brand it shoot a tad amend. Gus This is how my 308 hawkeye shoots now with the bedding modification. I know some guys here say their hawkeyes shoot this good in factory form, but I was like y'all and getting vertical stringing and erratic groupings before. I'm pretty pleased now since it hangs with my new SC model 70 fwt for accuracy (group shot in the rain): Tit for tat these rifles shoot like this and upwards to effectually i moa when they get-go getting dingy ( I know most of you guys don't believe in cleaning em). These 2 are shooting the same load too which makes information technology very nice and convenient: I try to stick with the nuts, they do so well. Zilch fancy mind you, just evidently jane will become information technology washed with style. You lot desire to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole.

Whilst i am quite a handy homo, I would rather requite the hogue stock to my gunsmith and get him to fit it - and ensure all is A-OK and the tension on the screws are all correct. Equally long as the butt gratuitous floats thats all I desire it to do. This burglarize I primarily will use shooting out of my truck or sitting in a hide - hence opting for the tough every bit nails rubber hogue. The gun did show vertical stringing of shots due to the barrel existence in contact with the stock (with the original Ruger stock) I will let you know how I get on - the stock should exist with me in ii-3 weeks.

I'k pretty sure yous will be very happy with the hogue if that is primarily how you will be using it. I really like mine on my 300 wsm as it is very comfortable to shoot off the bench. I'm thinking it would also be neat if it had a nice harris bi-pod attatched too. The full aluminum block hogue is besides a better stock than the ane on my pbr. Take care. I try to stick with the basics, they do and then well. Goose egg fancy heed yous, simply patently jane will get it done with style. You desire to see an brute drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole.

Information technology is a 308 win. The SC store does them right IMHO. I didn't have to do annihilation to mine except for put drinking glass on it. It's a shooter too. I try to stick with the nuts, they do then well. Nothing fancy mind y'all, just plain jane volition get information technology done with style. Yous want to see an animate being driblet right now?

I had to polish the reciever race ways, bolt and extractor, to polish the activity out. I had to bed it, freefloat the barrel and install a lighter trigger spring to get the lc6 trigger where I liked it (atleast I didn't have to hone and smoothen that like I do my MKII'south). At present I honestly don't know which one I like better since they are both groovy rifles that I'd trust my life on. Tin't beat either one for reliability and durability. I try to stick with the basics, they do and so well. Goose egg fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with fashion. You desire to see an animal drop correct at present?
