[QUOTE="jcpython357, post: 27816, member: 1187"] Jerry, I hate to sound stubborn here, but the action is already sitting squarely in the bed, by noting the contact marks on the aluminum and clearance on both sides of the reciever area, I have complete confidence in the HS stocks as to not have them bedded, I just don't believe in doing it after the way my 708 S/S w/HS Sporter stock and 6mm shoot, the 708 shoots as good as or better than a Jarrett hunting rifle, I'd really like to get the source of the barrel pulling to the left, which appears to be the face of the reciever not being square with the lug, I sent a e-mail to Rem. to see if they'll take the barrel off and check/square the face of the reciever if I send the rifle in, they'd probably give me a new rifle before they did that, like with the VSSF I bought my son last year where you could plainly see the barrel had a warp in it and they said they were going to put a new stock on it because the existing stock had a bad bedding block, ********, I told them I swapped barreled actions/stocks with my other 700s and they fit perfectly in the VSSF stock, but the VSSF barreled/action sits the same in every stock I put it in, the barrel still goes to the left and the warp is still there, finally after the big run around, the repair shop called me and said, how bout we put a new barrel on there for ya, they sent a new rifle, what a deal.
