I got a beater '67 standard.
It shoots like crap.
Reason?
Maybe something to do with the stock (Overton)...hollowed under bbl except for a couple inches at the front.
When I refinished the stock, noticed the bbl band was a bear to get on.
Didn't really pay much attention past that.
Should have.
It had a tremendous amount of pressure on the bbl (w action screw torqued to 20 in lbs).
I got socket and some 400 paper and worked it down a bunch.
Now bbl band goes on and tightens OK (less gap too).
Bbl w band off, can shove an index card past tip area (drags). Past tip sides are not touching.
Gonna shoot it this week and see how it does. Might remove more from the front channel.
Band on first, band off next. Mod wood as needed.
The amount of bbl above the wood at tip...........looked like it never was done to proper depth at factory LOL.
Cleaned up pretty decent. Hope it behaves.
