[QUOTE="bs911, post: 498766, member: 27179"] Good items to mention BrowningLover. I agree that the factory stock and recoil pad are very effective. We do load development on a lead sled, but even without, the recoil is not all that bad. Not enough to make me want a muzzle brake. The stock itself has a (subjectively) superb feel, even walking through the woods in the cold rain and snow. I did have to sand out the fore-end on mine a tad. After about dozen or so shots, the barrel was starting to touch. I'm getting ready to do a grind job on my magazine as well to accomodate some longer Bergers. Question... did you have to channel out just the mag itself, or did you also have to cut a little around the floorplate area (?) so the round could clear out of the magazine? Looks on mine like the mag and action mate pretty close. Haven't started the loads yet, but I don't need a whole lot more than the mag will accomodate already to reach the lands. [/QUOTE]
