Best epoxy for wood

[RJ156]

Soooo, after my stock refurb, how I missed it don’t ask,

But my last shoot being ropey has now explained itself.

My no4 mk1 shot 1.5” group first time I shot it.

2nd time within 10” was difficult

I did a stock refurb, fitted a NGS scope mount and scope. Didn’t shoot it since but decided to strip it again to check the main screw bushing was correct length and noticed a crack in in of the draws.

Gave it a wiggle with a pick with the hope of re-adhesiving in situ.

The whole draw bolt handle side came loose. And separated from the stock.

What epoxy if any is worth an attempt. Before I replace the draw

I have no idea what the draw is. Totally confused by your post I have no idea what you are talking about.

Alpha's probably still coming around out of his cups. :)
I'm guessing you mean the area that the drawbolt passes through requires bolstering.
I've always found JB Weld is a very effective adhesive and filler.

I realise now how that reads. Apologies

Draws, as in where the recoil lugs ( can’t think what else to call them) bear upon the stock. It’s on the inside of the stock.

Once you have glued it you may have to pin it.

Hello
Interesting article updated what I thought I knew "but didn't" still my No4 and smle shoot very well, so suppose I won`t be stripping to make any adjustments

Yeah il see how I get on. By pin you mean drill and dowel right? Not pin with say steel

Yeah I think it was only because the muzzle pressure was odd to one side I thought to recheck it all.

Up pressure was fine And it shot amazing when I got it, but next
Time it was like it broke first shot.

Least there’s a reason now and I know it’s not just me

I repaired a CZ550 stock that had a crack underneath where the bolt handle sits. I drilled holes through the crack and put 3mm brass threaded rods into the holes. The rods had some Devcon on them and there was some in the holes as well. I also opened up the crack and put some Devcon inside.

I cut/filed away the rods when the Devcon was dry and as I oiled the stock I covered them thoroughly. They’re now nice and shiny and almost look like they’re meant to be there!
