Sirs
I'm curious about how to fill in the inletted part of a long action wood stock for a rifle I bought a couple years ago. It works fine/shoots good with a blind follower atop either the magnum length follower and spring it came with, or the .257 Rbts follower and a 7 mm Mauser spring I've just bought for it. Because of the extra space, the rifle won't "stack" rounds. The stock it came in was snapped during shipping and I "repaired" it enough to keep it as a back-up or experiment/project. Can I do something to take up the extra space in front of the follower and in back of it?
I'm sure this has been discussed but can't find old posts that might answer my query.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Barry

 I went to mow the lawn yesterday without a blade in the mower.....

Some of my best friends are Aggies, so I'm used to it.

Got stuck thinking about the conversion, busted stock and such. Blind follower allowed me to work up loads, and I have had no intention or opportunity to hunt anyway. Just forgot, even though I bedded the thing, to think about the magazine box itself.
