One thing i just noticed is ,thatafter i slam the gun closed, no movement between the barrel and receiver !! I am wondering if the problem is in the lockup bar at the receiver . If i close it slowly then there is a lot of movement , but if i close it hard , there is NONE .So i have a lttle play in the locker-pin and a problem with the lockup bar . Also , before i floated theforend my gun was putting all the bullets in the same hole. I think when the front stock was touching the barrel and the recieve it was holding the barrel in place and not alowing the play in the pin and lockup bar area. As soon as i floated the forend all my problems started. Buti think the problem would have showedup down the road anyway.
