[QUOTE="Snowwolfe, post: 5831661, member: 14220"] A rifle that old could be suffering from the wood being crushed in the area surrounding the front and rear action screws. This is corrected by pillar bedding both areas. The wood is crushed by time and pressure and then the action screws are tightened again and in a few more years the process is repeated. After 70 years or so it could use a little help These crushed areas could also be allowing the recoil lug to be pulled down and bottoming out in the recess in the stock. S Sounds like a first class glass bedding along with pillar bedding the area around the action screws might be warranted. [/QUOTE]
