[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 1980905, member: 101791"] 1. You should have felt the screw hitting the bolt from the start. 2. Are the thread long enough that attaching the action to the stock presently doesn't bottom out, so the stock to action is tight. 3. If that action isn't tight, you are going to have problems. The threaded section of the screw seem to be long enough in this stock to get proper contact from what I can read. Take a look inside were the screw is projecting out if possible to determine how much needs to be removed. If can't be seen then a little at a time of the thread end until the bolt is clear of the screw. I would think that should be enough room to allow for one thread to project above the area and clear the bolt at the same time. As you are working on this screw be careful that your thread are set to start the screw into the action correctly and not damaging the threaded sections. No force and by hand only. If it doesn't start some work on the start of the thread needs to be done. A die should be acquired to make sure the thread are correct each time. Not knowing for sure what the length needs to be. If you have a tap and die set should have that die in there to to the work. Be sure you have the correct die with proper threads per inch. [/QUOTE]
