I have a Rem Model 700 ADL synthetic stock, which got soaked in the rain my last hunt. I removed the stock in order to get it dry and lubricated.
My question is when you put the stock back on, do you need to re-sight the gun? I noticed the main screw which attaches the action to the stock was cranked down pretty tight.. so did not know if it could affect the point of impact if you did not torque it exactly like it was originally.
I always keep the same torque on the front action allen screw. I tigten it to 50 in-lbs. And the back just tight enough. And that has helped me keep it zero'd for the most part. But I would definately rezero before hunting.
