I'm tired of pouring money into this project. I have decided to pull the barrel, send it back to Pac Nor, which will probably only get me more money out of pocket for shipping, sell the Vanguard action, McMillan Edge stock, Timney trigger, and Talley mounts.

Life's too short to continually deal with these kind of problems, even for a rifle nut.

I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....
