Wish I could post pictures but that will have to wait until I've got more time to master that technology. From now on I will monitor that a lot more closely (I've got another rifle thats acting strange...might have found the answer). I think the synthetic stock may be more prone to this as well, but anyway......again thank you ol kind sirs and a special thanks to Spaniel for posting that great response on the other tread about pillar bedding. I'll try that when I get a chance in the future and now am confident that I'm keeping this gun for the long haul.

You're welcome. I'm just glad we have another happy shooter. I've been there, frustrated and blowing cash downrange with no apparent answer to the flyers, ready to use the gun for a fence post. It's no fun.
Keep an eye on the "for sale" sections, maybe you'll eventually find a laminate stock for that gun, they are easier to work with than the plastic.
