I seem to have buggered the forestock on my Churchill sporterized Enfield after two botched attempts to bed the action. So I'm thinking of starting from scratch with an aftermarket stock and Im looking for opinions on which ones are better than others, and how accurate they can be.
My other concern is whether or not it would be necessary to bed the new stock anyhow... I'm only looking to get decent hunting accuracy out of it. And if anyone feels so inclined as to describe the proper way to bed the forestock on a sportered #4mk1 that would be cool too.;)
 
Fiberglass Bondo and WD40 baby! Works great!

Check out Boyd's for a new one; I'd try putting a WTB up in the EE. Or use a carving chisel to hog out the bad bedding material and give it another shot.

There's a really good sticky thread in the gunsmithing forum on how to bed a rifle with Devcon bedding material (if you aren't keen on bondo.)
 
I've successfully bedded several rifles before this but the Enfield is complex, it's much different than a standard action/stock fit. Apparently I just can't get the draws area mating properly... I'll have another crack at it before I throw I the towel.
