Chuck NelsonRear hole spacing on MRC LH charter issue actions?
Does anyone know what the rear hole spacing is on the Left Handed long charter issue MRC actions?
Thanks

Glen71I don't understand your question. The spacing of the rear hole from what?

RancherA couple of the early ones that I saw had a .330" hole spacing..
Dan will tell us the whole truth, but I believe that if you have not yet received your action, you'll find mount holes for both the .330" and the .860" (I believe it is) spacing. I.e. 3 holes - of which one will be covered if you are sensible enough to use 2 piece base with a .860" spacing.

rootbeerThe M1999 is supposed to take many of its features from the "new" pre-1964 M70 action. My money is that the spacing is identaical to that of the original USRAC action.

Dan@Montana Rifle CoSorry it took so long to get back to everyone on this one, I've been swamped!
I spoke with the owner and he stated that the Left Hand "LONG" actions will maintain the 3 holes on the rear bridge. He said that he is doing so in order for people to use a variety of bases on the rear. It will have both the .330 and .860 spacing.
On the "SHORT" actions we will go exclusively to the .860" spacing on the rear.
