Reply With QuoteMore than likely the front action bolt is contacting the lugs on the bolt. Easy test it to back off the front action screw a couple of turns (or more),and see it the bolt frees up.
I bought a Boyd’s stock and the action drops into it nicely but I am having an issue. When I screw the action into the stock I can’t open the bolt. I checked the length of the screw and it doesn’t appear to be to long. I havent had a chance to really assess it fully yet but I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks

I agree. Check it by leaving rear lug screw tight, & unthreading front screw slowly...like 1/4 turn at a time to check. Then get back to us.
Boyds put in a soft plastic estucheon bushing and more than likely it compresses while tightening and allows the end of the screw to reach the bolt lug.
