I just got the barreled action in. This one is a true .36 bore with 1-14 twist ~.004 cut twist rifling 28" Oregon barrel, mounted on a Pete Allen inline action. Both straight 7/8 octagon.
The action came pretty close to what I expected.
The underside of action with trigger removed
A hazy photo, but shows the plunger cocked and turned to the side, held by a roll pin out of its slot.
And the crown, I went with the 7/8 straight barrel, but next time would be the tapered. My thought was Id probably have to make, or at least inlet the stock, so K.I.S.S. But it actually fits in my mountaineer stock pretty close.
Here it is compared to a Mountaineer, its very close. I couldnt completely seat the action because of the recoil lug, but the trigger looks about perfect, and the oct barrel reversed seats very close in the channel. It looks like the recoil lug screw would be about spot on for the front trigger guard screw.
Looks like I have some filing to do around the lug and some overall finishing. So.. I need a stock now..Im thinking an MK-85/bighorn/knight american, or a TC omega stock, some bondo and bedding/fibeglass/liquid plastic and a refinish. Anyone have a stock for sale?
