I bought a 12 FLV last year as a donor but kept it as a .204 for a while, I only swapped it into a converted Duramaxx (last year).
I noticed that the front action screw didn't line up real well but, figured it was the stock.
I recently pulled the barrel off and put on a factory SS varmint and a machined recoil lug.......it wouldn't fit back into the stock....I was still thinking it was the stock. With the thicker lug it didn't fit the tupperware properly; the barrel contacts the right side of the stock down toward the fore end.
I have another 12 FLV action with the same set up......factory SS varmint barrel and same recoil lug. It's in a factory VLP stock, it's perfectly centered.
I pulled that out and put the "problem" action in, same thing. It sides hard to the right in that stock too.
Has anyone seen a receiver misdrilled (action screws) from the factory ?? If so.....how do i fix it ??
