Rem 700... The barrel is closer to one side of the stock then the other, and it is bothering me. Its not actually tocuhing the stock anywhere, but I cant get it perfectly center. It is still free floated with the hs stock but no matter what I do as soon as I tighten the action screws, which I do evenly and proper torque, it pulls itself to the right slightly. Is this a problem, or how can I solve it? Thanks

Re: Cant get barrel lined up right?
What type of stock is it? Is it bedded? Aluminum bedding block? A little more info would really help.

The HS Precision stocks do have an aluminum bedding block. I've actually heard of this happening before with others' rifles but mainly only after putting the action in a new stock, not factory....make sure your magazine box is installed properly and you're not torquing down onto it incorrectly, this happened to me. It popped off the track and caused a lean to the left. Also make sure your torquing to proper spec.
