Model 700 c grade custom issues

[mack9807]

Hello wondering if anyone ever had this happen ? I got a near new 700 c grade custom in 300 rum . This morning is opening morning of gun went to push from safe to fire and safety was really stiff then I end up with this. Not happy beyond all hell but stuff happens I get that. I'm thinking wood swelling pushing against safety ?? Any input would be great , thank you

I don't reckon any guesses will be be substantiated for sure till you open her up.
Take the action out of the stock and try the safety (unloaded).

It sounds like you're ready to go hunting. If so, just take it like it is and figure it out later.

Some time ago I attended a DU trap - Skeet - tower shoot. I was watching two gentleman shot the tower: one shot going low - one shot going up. You shoot this quickly for the required number of shots. Both were shooting high end over-under shotguns, one being a sliver engraved Krieghoff. This shooter had a 'jam' trying to open the action. He used his knee to assist in breaking open the SG. When he did a 3 inch section of the stock by the rear of the action broke off and fell to the ground. I imagine that it was a $5,000 piece of wood.

Sorry for your stock. Crap happens.

Good Luck
