Well, this is my first barrel swap. taking the old barrel off and putting the new one on took all of 10 minutes (or less). I still need to head space the barrel.

My problem is the replacement stock. since this was a barrel being removed from a 10FP, I needed a stock for a sporter weight barrel. The action does not fit in the new stock. They are both staggered feed and are identical except back by the safety. The sporter stock is squared but the 10FP tactical stock is rounded. Other than this the stocks are identical (with the exception that one is cut out for a heavy barrel and the other a sporter barrel).

Do I just open that squared end up with a rat tail file? Has anyone had this problem?
