I am the proud owner of a Heinz 57 M-14 Rifle. The receiver is Polytech,The barrel is Criterion,Bolt TRW. Sedlak op.guide & spring, Sedlak tin gas piston, Welded gas tube. I use two triggers 1: A Chinese frame with TRW hammer & Trigger, after market coil spring. Brakes at 3 1/2lb. Use this only bench shooting ( single shot). 2 : GI. stock SA. trigger, brakes at 5 lb.
used with magazine. Have a Nikon 4X16 Duplex Scope mounted. On trying to get the best accuracy from the bench at 100yds,experimented with three stocks I have. One GI stock from Fred`s walnut full of color , shoots 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 with various loads,Have a GI.fiberglass stock, shoots about the same.Last the Chinese board plank. Where am I going with this ? The last groups shot were with the board plank. 5 shots of 168 Federal comp ammo into a .316 group center to center, shot 5 more of the same into a .635 group.don`t want to use this ugly stock, but shows the rifle will shoot. I want to get my ( refinished ) walnut stock glass bedded, so the rifle will shoot & still look good. Can you shooters recommend a good M-14 Rifle Smith close to SW. Pa, Fulton Armory is in Md. but don`t know if they fool with a $ 200.00 + job. Thanks, Rickashay
