[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1473405, member: 2736"] Keep In mind that you don't have to have much clearance, just enough to keep the forearm from applying any pressure to the barrel. With two piece stocks adding a big gap doesn't help. As long as It is not bearing on the barrel it is as good as you can get. If you have to sand the sides a little a flat piece of wood with sandpaper on it will do Ok. Floating the forearm on two piece stocks may not improve the accuracy, but it should improve the consistency. Good luck J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
