My .223 is Back
« on: January 27, 2006, 04:01:59 PM »
Well it's back from the Factory:
I gave it a good going over and a cleaning.
As far as I can tell the only thing they did was replace the Forend  
Seems they locked it in a Ransome Rest and shot this Target.
No explanation of any repairs.
I'll get to the range as soon as I can to see what happens, it still has all the play it did before only with a tighter Forend.
If worse comes to worse I will make permanent Shims  
I'm just glad to get it back,  Now I got another Tinker project.
Well Off to the Reloading Bench I go.

Original Thread for those that don't know what I'm going through.

I hope it shoots good for you too...I think I would be calling Gordan at NEF Monday and asking him about the movement issue..you shouldn't have to shim it to eliminate any play in it.There shouldn't be any in the first place..and to get one back that was sent in for this problem in the first place..isn't right..
