Re: Mosin Nagant - Cracked stock
For what they are I doubt the cost of the above work would be worth it. I have several Mosins. Regardless of what I do to them they will never be tack drivers.
My opinion is bedding, aluminum pillars, shimming, etc... would make a $120 Mosin worth about $120. You may see some improvement but if new barrels are available that may be a better course of action.

Re: Mosin Nagant - Cracked stock
Well to post an update...
I finally got back to the range after gluing and clamping the stock. When I was done it looked solid.
After only 5 rounds, the crack opened back up to it's original dimensions and I shot about a 10" group at 25 yards! <gasp>
I'd be better off with a handgun! lol
Granted, it was the first time I shot it. I'm going to take it to the range again as it and put some more downrange and see what happens.
I'm not after a sniper rifle here, just something fun and cheap to plink with.

Re: Mosin Nagant - Cracked stock
If durability is the end result just get an ATI nylon stock and bed for accuracy. Proper bedding would probably correct the problem anyway because your filling the entire recoil area with bedding epoxy. I ,personally , would go with the ATI stock,and be done with it. Accuracy is never going to be as good as a Mauser or Remington, Savage, Winchester, etc.
