Hey folks I came across a savage 11 in .308 with stagger feed magazine. I already have a choate varmint stock with the 4.27 spacing so I thought it would bolt right up. I am having trouble with the bolt binding up and not cycling. Have any of you had this trouble and if so what do I need to do to correct it? I didn't have this trouble with my last build so I'm a little confused on what to do to make it work correctly. I'm also reading a bunch of stuff about the stagger feed not feedin g correctly so can this be switched to a centerfeed? Either way it will be a blind magazine not DBM.

That's exactly what it was. I had to shim the front screw. Thanks for the reply.
