Im having issues with my Boyds conversion. It seems that every time I torque down the action, not by much, it locks up, and yes this has been covered before. This is the second stock that Boyds have sent as the first one was one of the "prototypes" they sent out by mistake, but after fitting the second one its pretty much the same fitment as the first. So Im thinking that pillars are what it might need just to stop the wood compressing. Its sad that I have had to remove wood from the inletting and put pillars in just to make it work and work safe.

For the cash its money well spent if you want to become a gunsmith and learn a little, and they look and feel great but I would recommend looking at the SSS stock next time as they seem the way to go for drop in and shoot.

Good work and thanks for the writeup...
