Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Anschutz 54 vs. 64

I took the chance on a rougher gun which had already been chopped. I fixed up the stock a bit (there was a crack up front and some dings) and then gave it a quick spray with the Whatchagot Green rattle can I found in the garage. It is crude, yes, but then the peace afforded to not having to think about scuffs, etc., can be tangible. The groups it makes are not so crude




The above 54 came with a second full-length barreled action, which I let set around a couple months until deciding I should figure out what to do with it. A gunsmith down in Southern California said he had a bolt he could marry to it, so I sent it down to have the bore inspected for viability. Once approved (the interior was excellent - the exterior was around 90%), he shortened the barrel, hit the whole deal with cerakote, and set it into a stock. I've had it out to the range twice in the last two weekends with 1/2-3/4 moa results at 50, but it has been gusty so I think it'll go better weather permitting.



Anyone know what the threaded hold in the right side of the green stock is?
