Default New CZ 550 in .308 --

Just bought a CZ 550 American, looks to be up to the usual CZ standards as far as fit and finish, but one thing I want to ask about---this modal has a free floated barrel---when using the slide the dollar bill check, the left side, right at the front of the forend, is pretty tight, but by pulling a little harder on the bill, it will pass into the stock channel and moves freely between that area and the receiver --- should I take it down and sand the channel to provide more clearance or just shoot it and see if it shoots as well as it should as is ? The barrel does not actually touch the wood, but I'm asking if the amount of clearance is critical----I've had another CZ in 30-06, .22 Hornet and two different .22's and all have been very accurate-- this one will be used for deer, hogs, and coyotes----- John
