new boyds stock shoots low

Just built a 3 position smallbore rifle , which was to swap-out a Boyds evolution stock that they make for Savage for the BSEV 22LR and put it in a Varmit Pro that I pillared and added an adjustable butt and an adjustable handstop rail on the forearm. Torqued to 11inch lbs it shot at least 4"-5" low at 100yds. No biggy, to adjust the scope for, but interesting. Can understand a new stock making a gun shoot high than before but not lower. Both stocks provide a free floating barrel.

I would have to draw it out but certainly have had the same thing happen.

I used to be good at geometry but I have to draw that stuff out anymore.


I had my 116 sighted in, took out to 85 yds after stock swap and could not hit it.

back to 25, got on paper. Way low. Adjust, back on, good to go.
