Geez… this is still going??
Are you using an arbor press? Is all your brass properly annealed? What is your neck tension? What’s your run out? How do you size your necks and are they turned?
Pssst… neck tension
Looking at the arca + pic short rail I was hoping the picitinny slot would be up to about 3-3.2” which would cover standard stud spacing then the arca could be anchored with 3rd bolt or potentially be left to free float (but pressed against the stock) as it would provide a better balance point...
Just to avoid confusion. Do you have any pictures?
I don’t have anything arca so if I move forward I want to make sure it’s clear as crystal to avoid costly mistakes.
I’m looking at your arca + pic rail. Can the weight of the gun be supported by the arca that far out on the forearm?
Of course it’s a subjective question, but let’s say on avg weight gun.. 6-8lbs?
