If I were you I'd call them tomorrow and get them to send you 10 rounds of the exact same ammo they shot through it and take it to the gunsmith or someone else you trust and let them set it up with their own preferred scope and shoot it with the MRC ammo.Gun was sent in without the scope. However, I shot it with two scopes with the same results.
They may or may not be angled. You'll have to pull them and put some all thread or long bolts in and see how well they center in the trigger guard screw holes to tell.I am a bit torn on how I want to proceed. My first thought is like you said, drill the holes a bit. However, that doesn't fix the fact that the bolts are slightly angled in the hole meaning rather than pulling the action straight down they pull it down and back. It is not by much but does that slightly bind anything? The best fix is moving the entire action back so it aligns with the holes and that would also take the lean out the of the action screws. Then I would have to change inletting and have it rebedded. I could drill the pillars and move the bottom metal forward but that would leave a nasty gap on the bottom. In speaking again with mrc repeatedly, they said I could pay to send it back in but they were very shaky on what would happen with the gun, as in charging me to ship it back and possibly charging me to fix it. If I could press reset on this whole deal I would have just saved longer and bought a cooper.
The stock is an mrc x2 stock. I just took a rat tail file and enlarged the pillar holes so the bolts don't touch and the issue was solved.Is that a hs presicion stock? Either way your barrel should not have any bedding touching it anywhere! I'd hog all it out and bed the whole action and the recoil lug and then dremel away the area that will be touchung the barrel. Some people bed the first inch or so of the barrel and this isn't recommended. Especially if you don't want to string shots as the barrel warms. Also, contrary to popular believe, don't tape the recoil lug anywhere while bedding! I've been told by a very good smith that if it doesn't take you a while to get the gun apart after screws are removed its not bedded right! It should take some work, which means the stock and gun are tight. What size groups are you getting?
