[QUOTE="Rhunter2, post: 1256784, member: 96050"] I am a bit torn on how I want to proceed. My first thought is like you said, drill the holes a bit. However, that doesn't fix the fact that the bolts are slightly angled in the hole meaning rather than pulling the action straight down they pull it down and back. It is not by much but does that slightly bind anything? The best fix is moving the entire action back so it aligns with the holes and that would also take the lean out the of the action screws. Then I would have to change inletting and have it rebedded. I could drill the pillars and move the bottom metal forward but that would leave a nasty gap on the bottom. In speaking again with mrc repeatedly, they said I could pay to send it back in but they were very shaky on what would happen with the gun, as in charging me to ship it back and possibly charging me to fix it. If I could press reset on this whole deal I would have just saved longer and bought a cooper. [/QUOTE]
