Anyone else installed an aftermarket fully-inletted stock on their rifle, and have a significant change of POI afterwards?
Mine shoots good enough to dump a deer at 100 yards, but definitely needs a scope adjustment after the change, using the same ammo as before. Not unexpected; i'll resight, then maybe bed the stock if need be. It is tending to
open up the groups a fair bit, and cluster them to the right and down some as compared to before.
Barrel is still fully free-floated, even after shooting 20 rounds. I have the action screws tightened to 15 inch pounds right now, which is not super tight I know. Not real keen on tightening these screws super tight and compressing any wood at this point; as I understand it, a rifle doesn't need lots of torque on these screws to get good accuracy, when bedding is good.
I figured I would be lucky if there was no change in POI with the stock change but just wondering what others had experienced. Not keen to identify the manufacturer as I think this may be a stock within normal tolerance and
just needs a minor tweaking to perform at it's best. I am more than willing to bed it myself if I need to.
