[QUOTE="KDB, post: 300773, member: 18510"] I had the same situation with one of my 700's, or so I thought. I lined up the screws and used a straight edge and it looked like my holes were out of alignment canting to the left. However, once I put it in the mill, the holes were virtually dead on. Upon further inspection, the action was pollished or ground more on one side and gave the appearance of things being off. Point being, have some one put it in a mill to check the alignment and spacing. If they are off, then they can drill and tap the action while it is already set up square in the mill. Problem solved. Hope this helps, KB [/QUOTE]
