I would offer this observation for your consideration. I have alot of custom rifles as well as factory rifles and have been in your situation before. Check to see if the bolt handle is touching the stock. Secondly and most important, the crown may not be as perfect as it looks. we use a Manson crowning tool with expandable mandrels or pilots and find that even rifles that cost $3000 to $4000 dollars were improved by recrowning with an 11 degree crown. Alot of barrels sre drilled off center and are not exactly round . It can be done in 10 minutes on the gun. The gun smiths around here are using them to get a concentric crown. We have never seen a lack of improvement.
