The base has aslope inside the base to allow the rifle butt to sit correctly. It is thicker one end than the other. Don't fall for the trap of making them flat as the rifle won't rest easy. Regards Rick.

Cheers Rick,
I didn't know that. I had wondered if it would be an issue, but I have not seen this mentioned anywhere, so thought it mustn't have been a problem. Whether I make them, or have them made for me, i'll make sure that is catered for. That will mean I have to get the rear panel (with upper rifle brackets full attached) finished so I can gauge the angle from 'real-life'. I had intended to call in to the Gympie Woodworks Museum while I was in town this afternoon, but they wern't open!!! Try again tomorrow ![]()
