Hi I want to mount a biathlon sling to the side of my Bell and Carlson medalist stock. I'm wondering the best way to do it, I don't want to just screw in some studs. Has anyone done this or can help.
Not sure how much material you have to play with, but what about the flush fit Q/D swivels from Uncle Mikes ?
Neil.
Hi Neil any idea who sells these flush fitting kits iv'e tried a few local shops but no one has them.
I got mine from an E-bay seller, Rings Mounts, General Accessories items in JJK Shooting Supplies store on eBay!
He also has a proper website now, a non e-bay one.

Well as it's nowt but a placcy stock how about a couple of coach bolts.. Won;t harm the appearance none and they will remain secure .
Perhaps you might like to ask EDI as he would likely know the best way to secure them as after all he does make this type of stock.
Haha Brithunter The thing is, a placcy stock is much better than NO stock at all, so to speak.
Why would you want a rifle with NO stock?
All my guns have stocks, heck I even have some so dangerous spare stocks, just be aware that according to Lincs plods even stocks need a licence to own.

Well that explains it Brithunter, The polds as you call them, probably would want you to have a licence for your stocks. Especially if they all have coach bolts hanging out of them, I expect they considered they could be used as an offensive weapon.
well, for starters, it looks better than a plastic one, even if it means you can't shoot the bugger
If you want something that looks good, buy yourself a painting for the wall.
Composite stocks lead to better shot to shot consistency and at the end of the day to less suffering for deer.
If you love wood so much why don't you fly in holidays in a wooden plane, days are gone, things have improved. Get real.
I also like wood on my shotgun and wouldn't want a plastic stock, but only because a plastic stock wouldn't improve
performance much on a shotgun. Rifle...different story.

Brit,
you are 50 years behind.
Time has moved on.
Every day I get phone calls because of rifles that do not behave properly. Mostly the owners only notice after wounding a deer that the
zero of their rifle is completely off. Mainly with wooden stocks.
I'll make a suggestion, why don't you supply the british army snipers with pressure bedded wooden stocked rifles?
Just write them a letter to suggest as you are convinced that that is the best material.
Lets see what the answer to that is?
Why do you think that the UK and US snipers have the upper-hand at recent conflicts?
As a deer hunter I think it is my responsibility to use the best equipment available to ensure a quick and reliable kill.
Wood is not in the equation as it is not reliable especially in our climate.
Those who choose wood as there stock material must be aware of the risks, maybe keep their shots closer and
check zero at shorter intervals.
