I just got a new Douglas barrel in 223 for my Savage Old 110 Action
Ok I am starting to carve a stock
Osage Orange wood that had about 20 years to dry will take a little bit of work
As I know it is tough on tools
But I love the Green , Orange , Browns and Yellow colors
But I want to use aluminum bedding block to make a nice stable platform
I figure I can make it as I plan on making it a single shot
But the aluminum I have is of a unknown alloy
As I have just salvaged scrap to use mostly to make bullet molds out of the scrap bin at my friends shop
Or dose a bedding block for a 223 Varmint Rifle need a certain type of aluminum ?
Just started the work
As I cut a 2" wide 5" tall and 24" long board out of a larger board a hour or so ago
I figure that was the easy part of making the stock LOL
Thanks
John
