I've done this before and it didn't end well, but this time I scored a B-Square sling swivel drilling jig (little rusty but complete) for $10 on ebay just now.
My question is do I drill the rear swivel:
a) perpendicular to "down" (as in towards the ground when the rifle is held in a normal posture) or
b) perpendicular to the lines of the bottom of the stock (so at a slight angle when the rifle is held in a normal posture)
??????
I'm guessing b) but my brain won't stop fussing about a) because it's a bit mouldy and broken.
I really don't want to bugger it up, the stock is rather nice and last time I did this I had no jig and made a right mess of it.
