Ok I'm looking for some help with a Rem700 PSS that I'm having issues with feeding rounds. Is there anyone on here that knows the 700 real well that would be willing to take a look?
I have it in a Manners stock, pillar bedded with unknown brand bottom metal since I bought the stock used. I've been using Magpul mags, .308 caliber. The problem is that the bolt skips over the next round and doesn't pick up. I've found that if I shove the mags in real hard, they work sometimes but it puts the mag above the mag release catch so it can work it's way back down to the catch and the bolt skips over again. On some mags, I can't push it in far enough to work right.
Something is off dimensionally but I can't figure it out. I'm wondering if the pillars are too tall or the bottom metal is not fitting in where it should because of interference with the stock somewhere. Are there any Rem 700 experts on here that can help?
