[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 613956, member: 22335"] Set the barrelled action into the stock, and look at the space between the bottom of the action (behind the recoil lug) and the aluminum support of the stock. It's easiest to see from below when the bottom metal and magazine are not in place. The last B&C I purchased and used for a Mark V (last summer) had the end of the forend tip upward enough that I had over 1/8 inch of room at this location. There is no way I could have torqued it down without putting severe stress on the action and barrel. If yours fits fairly well here, then go ahead and try and tighten it in place. [/QUOTE]
