I chiselled a shallow void into the forend of one of my rimfire stocks to allow the rail to sit at the correct depth, then screwed it in with a small amount of epoxy underneath the full length:

I've got a synthetic stock and I was wondering what's the best way to go around
To fit a picatinny rail to the bottom of it , the reason I want to do this is to have different accessories
Not just for a bipod but also flash light foregrip go pro , I know some people will say QD stud /swivel
But I already have a picatinny rail and adaptor with a swivel so would rather have options to change accessories instead of just being able to use a bipod and a sling
So far people I have asked told me
1-industrial grade super glue
2-drill a screw in to the rail ( it has two screw holes )
3-use epoxy
So I would like to know how I could go about this with out messing up
Thank you for your time

Put on heading 270, assume attack formation
A combination of the above
You need a flat base surface parallel to the barrel and square to the horizontal, so you either; machine that surface in to the stock & then attach the rail with screws, or build a spacer to take up the difference between the shape of the stock and the flat base of the rail, or attach the rail down the centre line with screws & use epoxy to fill the voids between the two to provide re-enforcing support.
Or you could just buy a Harris SRA (stud rail adaptor) which turns a stud in to a rail
