Picked up a Rem Desert Recon VTR in 308 for about $250. Was gonna just use the action for a build as i already have a good shooting 308. Had a HS stock around so I put it on it and it shoots lights out now. Shot a 6 shot sub half inch group yesterday with it with hornady TAP 168's.
At the end of the shooting yesterday it wouldn't feed out of the mag box at all. I went and hunted anyway and checked it out when I got home.
Mag box is canted in the stock. Seems to be main reason for feeding prob. I don't wanna take the stock off again because of how good it is shooting right now.
Should I be able to get the mag box out without taking the stock off??? I've tried but it's jammed up in there pretty bad. Looks like it should come out but for the life of me I can't get it to slide out without putting more pressure on it than I think is wise.
Any advise??
