Machining a Bedding Block for the Tikka M590 (Pic Heavy)
Hi everyone, here are some progress pictures of my current project.
It started when I saw a thread on the shooting.com.au forums: Sako 85 AICS - Shooting.com.au
I happened to have a spare barrelled action (well used) in the safe, that I had wanted to get it into a stock so it atleast had some utility, and GregT's work was just the inspiration I needed.

Once I have evaluated the barrel in it and settled on a calibre I will then look @ mag options and will complete the rest of the machining on the bedding block at that point.
And Yes, in-case anyone is wondering the tailstock was initially installed upside down ....good times, had to re-check my set-up again.
