Well, I'm putting together a rifle, cherry, and I've taken the buttplate off so often (fitting a patchbox and trying to fit the box to the contours of the buttplate) that the tang screww is not snugging down the top of the buttplate. The hole has somewhat wallowed out.I did try to jam a toothpick in it, but that caused the cherry to split at the hole where this screw goes in (don't ya love the way cherry takes off and does things like that?)
The question is: to repair the hole and the stop the split from happening, do I want to use JB Weld or[url] Acriglass.....in[/url] other words, based upon somebody else's experience, which would be stronger and provide the best repair qualities?
I've heard a lot of good things about JB Weld (I use Acriglass as a bedding a lot) like: "After I totaled my car, I put it back together with JB Weld", or "Ma wife was yakkin' at me so I shut 'er up with JB Weld"
What's you thoughts guys? :hmm:
