I GOT THE IDEA OF THE 1/4" THREADED ROD FROM MIDWAY USA ON YOUTUBE , THEY HAVE ALOT OF GOOD VIDS ON GUN REPAIRS ~~mm~~
the 350 Rem Mag would be considered a short action it was designed I believe for the old 600 Rem back in the mid 60s ~~MM~~I do like the 800, I just don't think a rifle that was built as an economy model using a plastic housed, non adjustable trigger is worth as much as some might think it is.
Your repair is quite nice! Did a similar repair to my 800A and will refinish my stock in the heat of the summer. My 800A is an accurate rifle as well.
Would you know which length of action was used with the 350 Rem Mag?
