ABSTRACT:
The action and barrel of a rifle are mounted to the stock so that the barrel is closely spaced from the front end grip portion of the stock. A rigid insert is fit into an opening through the stock and securely attached to the stock. The action is securely attached to the insert so that the barrel extends along the grip end portion of the stock without making actual contact with the stock. The rifle has greatly improved accuracy inasmuch as the barrel is not subjected to stress and strain due to atmospheric conditions affecting the portion of the stock which cradles the barrel of the rifle.
