Got to tinkering with the stock today , been noticing my zero shift and sure enough the stock had flexed back into the barrel. Talked to a old gun slinger buddy and was informed that back in the old days, skinny barrels performed better with a little dampening force in the front. Was advised to shim the stock, Eyeballing my old enfield that was put together by a competent gunsmith (most likely before I was born) and there’s shims in the front of the stock (factory cut stock). So I tried my hand at cutting some sheet metal and formed it around the barrel at the fore-end .. right now it’s just held in place with pressure, it def firmed the stock wiggle, and should theoretically,apply slight upward dampening force. Will try and see! :) (if it helps I may bed the action and the tip and keep the stock to buy more ammo !
