Just had a stock 'hot oil cast for me by Rakers, did a really nice and very accurate job, did not even know it could be done, now i have a keeper in what i thought was going to be a gun for sale or major modification. cost little more than a slab of cartridges.

 

What gun?

It was really straight through the action, i actually had a few comments on it being ever so slightly a leftie, which i doubted so I confirmed with Ruger they said they never cast them and all were supplied straight, special order for a left hand?

 

Are you in the US? not seen them over here (UK) not sure if it has a stock bolt but when one of the most respected gunsmiths in the country tells me it cant be done i tend to believe him!

It is stock bolted some have more play than others to allow you to get bits of movement. Custom stock like HDAVs tend to be made tight if that makes sense.
