Hello folks,
I just got my reworked action with new barrel back from the smith and it does not fit into my new Manners stock. When the bolt holes all align the recoil lug is obstructed from dropping in. Its not much, less than a credit card thickness.
I tried putting the action into a different Rem700 stock and had the same challenge.
Taking the Cerekote off would get me really close. Would it be ok to remove some of the steel to get a fit?
Thanks for any advice.
