They call that maple something with that grain like that but for the life of me i can`t remember. Fiddleback or tigerstripe? Same thing. Bob in NE Indiana Naw that ain`t it either, it ...

Re: 1895 Forearm question.

Yepper, took mine apart again and re-fit everything and when i was done there is only about two thousands difference between the front of the forearm and the end of the tube, close enough.
Took it out and shot it and put them both in the same hole, good enough.
Thanks Joe 8) :)

Re: 1895 Forearm question.

OK, I had my facts twisted. Ooops. The 1895 is a 45-70 with a round barrel ... right? If so that barrel is fairly thin and to my way of thinking ( SWAGing it ) most any pressure could deflect it.

Thing is after fixing the tube so it wasn`t pulling away from the barrel it didn`t shoot high again, ya would of thought it would of. :o
Do ya suppose that the forearm and tube once all tightened up keeps the barrel rigid so it can`t flex up. hmmmmm
