I split the stock on my CZ550 375 H&H

My fault - I knew I had to do something about it earlier.

I'd bedded the action and the rear sight recoil lug when I first got it. I also put bedding compund in the gap behind the tang - big mistake. I was warned afterwards that I should remove the bedding I put in behind the tang and that the gap was intentional and necessary.

As most oy you know, the tang acts as a wedge in this area so it shouldn't contact the stock at all.

Oh well, serves myself right. It only appears to be superficial as I coudn't see any signs of the depth of the crack when I removed the bedding material.

I would love to see high speed video of the tang area to see how much movement there is.

Good excuse to buy some nice timber? Why do I do this to myself? - I was starting to get serious about building a 500 Jeffery on a Ruger No. 1 for group 3 BGR. Is there something in my sub-conscious make-up that tries to keep rifle projects on the cards? I also shoot ex-mil Mausers (ParrallaxBill website regular) and have a Columbian carbine that needs a good stock clean-up (I've wanted to do this for some time but reloading seems to currently chew up my spare time).
