I recently picked up an 03A3 Springfield that had been converted to a budget benchrest rifle, and I am in the process of fashioning a rear pillar for the action. What is the right amount of separation to have between the mag well and the base of the action, or does it really matter if they make contact?

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark

Hello, I have giraffe leg bones similarly carved as well as elephant tusks which came out of the Congo in the mid-sixties
