[QUOTE="Ankeny, post: 110940, member: 4821"] Thanks for posting the pics. I finally had enough and I took to sanding the area in front of the recoil lug. Holy cow Weatherby had a huge pressure point right there. Removing just a little material caused the front of the forearm to raise a bunch. Weatherby had bedded the recoil lug and it was touching so I removed the barrel pad completely until the barrel was entirely free floated. I had to sand the front of the forearm until I was down to the sling swivel screw. It really ticks me off that I have been arguing with Weatherby for five months about this very issue. Anyhow, I took the gun out and shot it. The first six or seven rounds were spotty, then the gun settled down and (seems like that's a lot of rounds to seat the action) poured round after round into one moa. Grrr...I am glad I made headway but why oh why can't a repair center...never mind. I have a bunch of Acraglas gel that I use to do grip reductions on Glock pistols. What's the chance Acraglas would work to bed the action? Maybe I should start another thread? [/QUOTE]
