[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 926799, member: 6064"] Yes I have seen them. Major John Plaster ( who wrote The Ultimate Sniper) and Garth Choate ( owner of Chate Machine and Tool) designed that stock to fit the Remington rifles with a tractor axle for a barrel ( the rest of the line came latter). The reason I ask is I have seen some folks run in a sling swivel screw too far and they imping on the barrel, and a few of the stocks had a bit of extra molding sprue towards the back third that would rub. And while we are at it does your recoil lug touch only on the back and not at the bottom or the front, or sides of the cut out? When you screwed the stock on, did you use a plastic mallet to seat the action against the recoil lug area? Do you need to true your action? Do you know how to tell? Have you used a magic marker or Dykum blue to see the bolt lug wear pattern with a shell chambered? Are your firing pin hits centered on the primer? How deep are your pin hits? What is your throat lead? WOW I could go on all night, but if you are looking to upgrade anything I think the last thing I would look at would be the stock...Although I might look into getting it bedded to your particular action with steel bed.....yeah...yeah I know it isn't supposed to need bedding...but I guarantee it helps, at least it did last week and that is sarcasm back atcha! If you already know all the answers why ask? Good luck on your quest, I am sure you will get all sorts of good advice you already know. I am done! [/QUOTE]
