I am blessed with Savage 23 B, C, and D models. The 'D' had the chamber reamed for .22 K Hornet and was restocked. It's a nice enough stock, but I'm having trouble getting the thing to group, and I wonder if that could be the issue. The Savage 23 action is attached to the stock with two machine screws, one just behind the mag well and a smaller one forward a couple inches. For some reason, the restocker only used the rear screw. The pillar is there, as well as the proper hole in the stock, but the penetration for the screw is sealed with filler. Before I go searching for a screw or trying more loads, what do you all think?
