Title: More stock layout questions
Post by: Roger B on March 30, 2017, 09:29:46 PM

Thanks again to everyone who answered my "headache" post.  How much wood do you guys like to leave below the ramrod hole inlet and also at the web between the ramrod hole and the bottom of the barrel inlet?

I like to stay around 3/16" for web thickness. ;)
