Put it together with out the grip safety and they you can see whats happing JB

if its in the barrels it could be junk that came loose in between the barrels. Take the barrels off and see if its the barrel or action thats making the noise. JB

When the screws got messed up should have used heat and a easy out that way the base could still be used.

I like my Winchester 70 in 270 nothing wrong with the 243 just that rifle with that round fits me just right.

Brownells "shop price survey" for chamber and fit barrel to action which does not include the cost of the barrel, action, polishing or bluing is $150-$250 but the best is to start calling gunsmiths that do this type of work and see how much they charge and wait time. JB

I am a 1999 graduate from Trinidad State Jr College with a Gunsmith Degree. Tyler sorry to hear that about School of Trades. I also no longer work in a gunshop, I help manage a 3000acre hunting camp in Alabama. Schooling just gives you the basics and it got me a job at Great Gun Works in...

First get Gunsmith Kinks from Brownells read it if it bores you then gun work is not for you.

the real test would be to take one pistol shoot for accuracy and chrono it. Then freebore that pistol and do the same test agine. How did you freebore the barrel just curious? JB

just send it to Springfield Custom Shop they do great work.

you need to get the stock squared, also I go to a bigger size screw then the ones that come with the pad. I just not in to epoxy if I can help it besides thats not the way it would come for the factory. But do what you need to so it looks right to you. JB

http://www.andrewsleather.com/ They have very good holsters also. JB

did you square up the recoil pad? I fine they need to be squared up also so I just hit them on a belt sander. JB

I like the Winchester M70 pre 64 classic, mine never gave me any problems I like the trigger (dont know about the new triggers they use but I hear its good also). Sako is ok just never liked the Brownings A-Bolts so never got into there other rifles. JB
