Some Model 70 issues

The recent model 70’s rear trigger screw will not go through action it has a stop.
The front action screw on all model 70’s has always been a complete pass through screw hole where the bolt lug can hit a protruding action screw .
Ran into this problem with a pre 64 super grade 300H&H I have owned for over 30 years
Stock shrank and bolt did protrude into locking lug race barley , all of a sudden my 300 went from sub moa to 6 inch moa
easy fix pillar bedded and shortened screw, free floated barrel .
I would have done this years ago but the rifle was a shooter with out touching anything I really wanted to keep it as it left the factory but some times it is better to fix problem and use as intended

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob
