A while back I picked up an old single shot anchutz to learn on. I previously glass bedded the action. With only one action screw and a prior owner partially removing the pressure bump in the forearm the barrel and action teeter totted in the stock. Glass bedding fixed that.
Next project is to mount a Williams peep sight. Been trying to figure out how to get the sight square to the receiver. There is a flat ground on the bottom of the receiver where the trigger mounts and above this on the top of the receiver there is a slot that the bolt handle fits in. After considering a bunch of possibilities I think the best option is to use my caliper to square the sight base to the receiver and temporarily glue the base in place to drill and tap the mounting screw holes.
Will this work?
