AJ Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 It may be binding on the recoil lug. Winchester uses hot melt cement as a bedding compound so it would not suprise me to see it holding your action in. I would be sure the front screw is removed and pry it out of the stock. Keep the bolt installed and the safety on so it locks the bolt. Lift the action by the barrel and the bolt. You may have to teeter/totter it to get it out. While you have it out, use a chisel to remove the crap Winchester installed and do a proper glass bedding job with epoxy. Don't be suprised if your groups shrink a lot also.
