Yep, that's diagnostic.

About the only out of the box rifle I've ever had that needed NOTHING, was my Ed Brown Damara .300 WM. Ed's attention to detail took care of everything. It has the 3.6" full mag box and the gun is chambered such that with min jump, the COAL is longer than the std. 3.4" factory rounds. Bedding is perfect...

I can usually find something to "improve" any factory rifle...

I guess this is more of a semi custom than a true factory rifle. At least is was; Ed shut down his rifle line to concentrate on 1911 pistols.
