update time. Today the lump of wood had a trip to work and visited our cabinetshop. I'd marked the cuts already for the cheekrest and the hamster/knee riser, so they got seperated from the main body, ready to become adjustable :)
Now on this site, and known affectionately to many as "nunga" is a clever wee fella that can turn someones sketchy drawings into reality. I sent through a pretty average "plan" of what I wanted, and look what turned up :) Next step is to cut away under the cheekrest to sit this in, and drill a 15mm hole for the travelling post, and a 25mm hole for the locking guide.

Adjustable parts seperated from main body of stock now, ready for fittings to be attatched. Gotta love having a cabinet shop at your disposal :)
I'll add a couple pics tonight |

Of course, glad to help. I had used normal Builders bog, but i'm looking at better materials. Brett talked about steel filler and there's a kiwi guy that sells kits for about $40. Otherwise it's pretty straight forward to do. |

You could use a strip of sandpaper and double sided tape it onto the underside of the gun then rub back and forward in the stock till it is a nice snug fit.

Paul, If you feeling like showing/helping me to bed in my team laminate stock for the FWB at some point in the future I'd be grateful :)

I have fired a few shots now and bedding is definitely a good move. that snug fit really transfers the energy, and means you have even points of contact.
I know shoulder injuries take ages to heal, can you cock and fire your gun, or does that aggravate it? |

Most of the recoil should be dampened by the weight, but I'll probably bed the action anyway just to be pedantic.
There'll be extra weight in this as it extends a lot further forward of the breech, has its pros and cons, but for the bulk of the shots being in the free position it'll work nicely I think. |
