[QUOTE="angus-5024, post: 691830, member: 10306"] I have had rifles do that as well. The worst being a Wby Mark V that I took care of to extremes. What I found was that the rooms I was storing them in were not humidity controlled or had no vapor barrier (storage room). If the gun is stored in your basment and you have no frost walls (if its bare concrete, especially older houses) you can bet thats your problem. Even the most well maintained rifles will have problems if stored incorrectlly for a long time. [/QUOTE]
