Hey guys, first post here but have seen a lot of good stuff so hopefully I'll get an answer to my odd question. I have a "sporterized" 1903 Springfield with a cheap injection molded stock that is so limp in the forend that I can move it with my bare hands. In reading a book about gunsmithing I read that the author used auto body filler in the forend to stiffen it up and used tape to free float the barrel. I can see it working in theory, but I have my doubts about it.
Anybody have any similar experiences with this method? Recommendations? Just an opinion?
I'm pretty convinced the stock is causing accuracy problems because it moves so much. I already checked the barrel, action, and scope, all are in pretty good condition. All suggestions or experiences are appreciated.
Thank you
Also, I am not the one who sporterized it.
