I have that same problem with my gun. Anybody have an idea?

Not to highjack the thread, but I have a Remington Mod 7 SS in .308.

Have you tried showing it pictures of female 700 BDL's?

Similar to CMA I used some fiberglass and epoxy in a dremel made groove, made it just enough stiffer without adding too much weight. An aluminum rod would work very well also.

I myself don't mind if the forarm is flimsy. Sure it would be nice if it was a quality stock, What I care about is it freefloated barrel and is it pillar bedded or glass or both.

Yeah! Here is a step by step solution

1. remove action screws
2. remove action, magazine, floor plate, triggerguard.... from stock
3. Trow plastic stock in trash
4. Call Boyd's gunstocks and order a laminate stock
5. Place barrelled action into new stock and insert magazine....
6. live happily ever after.
