Looks like a scratch. As you move away from the butt plate, the little hook at the end of the scratch starts to cut across the grain. A crack typically follows the grain of the wood. Also a crack tends to widen as it moves toward the less constricted portion of the wood, as in around the action cutout, or the sawn end of the end of the stock. The mark on your rifle appears to be of uniform depth and width throughout its length. Its a scratch Ditto. I completely agree

Ah, I see. I don't have the specs on the 37. If it is not the thickness I said in an earlier post, I would not use it. It would be incorrect. A simple ring alignment tool would verify instantly. Again, people should not be putting on scope mounts and rings if they don not know how to PROPERLY do so. This stuff is definitely not rocket surgery. Especially scope mounting. I've seen in more than one place where people don't grasp that having two bases putting the scope rings at different heights is not the same thing as having an inclined one piece base.

Yeah, that is not good. Always use scope mount charts and then double check with your ring alignment tools. Don't just use the sharp points either! An out of alignment issue can be seen when you use the square ends. Like I said earlier, the chart does not list the #37. I still have not gone out in the shop to see if I have some. I probably do, if they make them. Weird why the chart does not list that one???
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
