[QUOTE="ANARCHIST, post: 1389696, member: 13558"] [URL]http://www.montourcountyrifles.com/[/URL] My son had weatherby inc make a total mess of his accumark, two trips back and the rifle imo is junk right it off for parts. My son broke the scope base screw off in the forward most hole, yes the one with the barrel threads, not trusting anyone but the actual manu "Weatherby" he paid stupid money to ship the rifle back & agreed to pay whatever to have the screw removed. First return it looks as though the drill bit walked across the receiver and onto the barrel leaving a nasty gouge. must of tried again and this time the screw is drilled off center so obviously the 6-xx screw will not tighten. we are looking at the above mentioned smith to drill the holes to 8-40 in hope the rifle can be saved from the scrap pile, anyone ever use this gunsmith? is it worth the trouble or should we just parts the rifle & never deal with Weatherby again. Any advice appreciated. oh yes pictures are available as well as Weatherby gunsmith stating he is using an oversized 6-xx screw in the stripped hole? [/QUOTE]
