Well it is about time,
Remington sent me a brand new LVSF stock in exchange for my original which had a small chip out of the cheek piece and also noticeable dinging at the fore end. I was very surprised to see this. No questions asked and they sent me the replacement the same day they recieved it. To top things off, my rifle, a .223 Rem, is shooting great. I did an excellent bedding job on it; this probably my tenth bedding job. I used a tungsten carbide bit I bought at Lowes to grind groves and notches everywhere I wanted the bedding then I taped it off and used Acraglass. Man did this bedding job turn out right! Pays off to spend some time doing the prep work. Anyhow, It is topped with a Weaver 4-14-40 silver scope, leupold mounts, and I have a Jewell trigger on the way.
Yeah, I know the Jewells are expensive and I really can't afford it but I have an exeption; my wife shot it after shooting my 10/22 with a 9 oz KID trigger on it and told me that the Remington trigger was horrible and that I needed to get one like is on the 10/22. And yes I ajdusted it. Now, I have permission. Very good. I hope I like the trigger. I have never used or owned a Jewel. BTW it is the stainless model. Also the LVSF is very sharp looking as well. And when I was grinding away at the inside of the stock I noticed fiber glass pieces throughout. Very Sturdy.
Good shooting
