Hey Corey, if that were my project I would fully glass bed the barrel with it centered in the stock and bend the hammer a little to hit the nipple correctly. That would be a permanent fix with the best likelyhood of ending up with a gun that shoots consistently.

OK. I didn't realize you were going for a switch barrel set up. Yeah, get another stock. That weather strip bushing is likely to cause more problems than it's worth.

I can get the barrel in the stock with out them and it is a little loose. maybe if I bent the lug on the 54 maybe I can get it to tighten up.

It's still likely to shoot all over the place (my opinion anyway).
