[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 2362229, member: 77249"] I have 2 700 rem. with H&S Precision stocks. Both rifles was bought with the Rubber Maid stocks. The stainless 338 WM I replaced the stock with no problem. Have not moved a dial on the scope in years. The 700 Rem. Varmit 223 Rem. original stock would let the barrel touch the stock laying on sand bags, 2 inch groups at 100M. When I got the H&S stock, The barrel would touch the side of the stock at the front sling screw. I cleaned the aluminum bedding insert and used JL metal epoxy, to fill in a few flaws. I aligned the barrel with electrical tape, While the epoxy repair dried. The rifle will now shoot 1/4" C to C groups with 4 shots in 1 hole. I think the flyer is the old man behind the trigger, "Me". Presently my score is, 1 fit great from factory, 1 had to bedded. [/QUOTE]
