As mentioned, I got a used Axis II XP in .308 a few years ago to play with. It shoots OK, am still working up loads for it. I've restocked it with a Boyd's Pro-varmint. The magazine has always been difficult to remove. It's more so now in the new stock.
The mag is held in place with a block around the front guard screw. Original was plastic, was replaced with metal in the new stock. I'm wondering if I trimmed the edge of the block a little would it make the mag easier to remove? Anyone have experience with this issue?

-Thanks, West out
