I'm in need of the experience and wisdom of the membership.

Thinking about actually shooting my M1903, the subject of this thread. I have to admit I've been thoroughly intimidated by the "mint" condition of this rifle and have let it sit in the safe since buying it. I have a full compliment of reloading accessories and supplies for it but haven't done anything! But dammit, it was made to shoot.

Question: Is there anything to be done with the bedding of these rifles? I can't say I'm impressed with what I see. It doesn't have a nice recoil shoulder like a Mauser or other "modern" bolt gun. Do they bed against the magazine housing? Need I fear stock splitting?????

This is just the beginning. If there are other potential problems please educate me. I'm a babe in the woods in regard to M-S rifles.

Thannks,
Curl
