What I’m referring to is the bottom.
Every stock for B&C needed to be cleaned up so the bottom metal/trigger guard drops in smoothly. That’s the biggest issue I’ve found with them on the Wby MarkV and Vanguards.
Have you marked these to see if they are carrying over to other loads with poor ES?
Is there a pattern to which shots are slower or are they just random?
The first thing I do with a new B&C stock is chuck up a small drum sander in the drill press and relieve around the action screw so the bottom metal drops in smoothly. I’ve had to do this to every one I bought. A couple I’ve had to shimmed the back action screw to level the bottom metal.
Today I received a holster Patrick made for my Taurus 44. With the red dot installed there wasn’t much out there. I can’t say thank you enough for his workmanship in getting what I wanted.

I have no complaints with the magnum large rifle primers.
I going to try to target 1500 to 1600fps with the 410 gr Sub-X bullets. I could get H4198 locally , but $80/lb. So I’m going the route of the 60% H4895 , cheaper. I’ve shot a lot of Blue Dot loads thru this rifle in the past , would be my first choice if available. I have a 18” barrel on order...
Good to hear , and thanks guys. H4895 is available locally.
The original plan was to run the Hornady 410gr subsonic with TrailBoss. That plan fell apart , now I’m looking to run them around 1500-1600fps.
Questions for those who have use this.
How clean does it burn?
How is the ES?
Accuracy?
Muzzle flash?
I have a project that I’m working on with my 458WM. I’ve use a lot of Blue Dot and 5744 both of which are hard to find.
Any feedback will appreciated.
Thanks , Rick
I got a hard time thinking on dropping 4 grand on Remington pump. Back in the 80’s my brother got a 7600 in 308 Win for $385 at the local hardware store. Man times have changed.
I’ve been toying with the rebarelling of my 458 WM. My thoughts were going to a short (18”) barrel and subsonic for my narrow woods stand.
First my bullets never shipped from American Reloading , eventually fully refunded.
Then my Trail Boss powder from Sportsman Warehouse got lost , again...
