My stock actually fit very well and the upper handguard piece I had to take a small file too as it fit to tight. It shoots just fine but it feels better to me. I have not settled on a scope yet but i have shot it with the irons now it is shoots the same as before, when comparing groups at 100 yards. I am still in the early stages of owning it and am primarily a scope shooter so with more practice I am sure my ability will get better as I am sure the gun is more capable than I am right now.
