Carpetsahib:
That's what I needed. Sounds like a lot of work, but if that is what it takes to remove the charger, so be it. I thought maybe just heating some or something like that. Oh, well. After removing the bridge, the No.1 action becomes so sleek and classic. As for the forearm, I had the same issue with my son's single shot. It was consistant for maybe two shots. I apoxy bedded the full length and the groups shrank from about 6 inch at 100 meters to about 1-2 inches at the same range. So far, he has taken neck shots on deer at over 200 yards and then on a nice wild blackbuck at about 75 meters. (He is 11).
As much as I love my Mauser rifles, I have a very nostalgic spot for the LE action rifles.
