[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1680121, member: 9308"] It all gets complicated because the action came out of the stock and, if I read it correctly, he pulled the barrel from the action. That means headspace had to be set again, torque on the barrel nut could be a little more or less than before, then the action going back into the stock tighter or looser can induce changes. Perhaps the scope was even pulled out of it's rings to allow the barrel nut wrench access to torque things together? There are several areas of potential 'change' from before the threading, to include more or less torque on the scope rings (if the scope was pulled.) I'm hoping the 'smith touches up the crown and all goes back to normal with this gun. Looks like it was a real shooter before all this! [/QUOTE]
