[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1013265, member: 69478"] My Remington 700 Varmint ADL had the same stock but just doesn't have a floor plate. I free floated my barrel and action sides then pillar bedded it, bedded the tang, recoil lug, front of the action, and 2" of the barrel channel with Devcon Steel and it shoots excellent. Never shot it without doing this work so can't say how it was "out of the box". Just testing some loads with different powders and different velocities, it shot a five shot 3/8" group and it only had 50rds down the barrel then, so the accuracy will only get better as the barrel gets more broke in. These stocks seem cheesy, but I can't twist the forearm on the rifle, it is very rigid and not as cheaply made as other factory synthetic stocks I have seen. [/QUOTE]
