[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3846390, member: 15054"] The pin in the front is one point of attachment and the distance between the area where the pin go in is .434" so I made my steel plate mount fit that really snug it is actually .433" I could have went tighter. The rear 1/4 20 attachment point is rock solid. So that is the second point and the factory Swedish Mauser mount if you look at the picture is stepped as it goes to the rear. I made my steel mounting plate to it sits tight in those stepped areas and is captured on the sides by the stepped up rear rails on the stock base. NO movement at all once the screw is tight and really no movement even that without the screw. Without the screw it fits together like a Lego but you must tap it a little to fully seat it. The only flex I have is the scope rail and that is at the very back of it . I have a pic to show. I feel once the scope and scope rings are mounted it will get stiffer. One thing I noticed is after all my grinding and screw tightening I have a little upward tilt of the rail. I can shim under the steel mounting plate and fix that. I will do that before I mount the scope. [ATTACH type="full"]297879[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
