I recently ordered a Boyds Thumbhole stock and the fitment.....leaves something to be desired. One side has a gap at least 1/16" and possibly pushing 1/8". The other side is pressing against the barrel. I have tried loosening the bolts and adjusting without success. Anyone have any suggestions for straightening the forestock?

I did this with a wine cork.

Redneck solution idea! Steam it like a cowboy hat and bend it

The recoil lug may not be centered under the action not sure what type of lug a Mossberg has. I have had a few Remington's that had that issue. Not sure which is easier for you to do but you could remove material from the recoil lug inletting and then just bed the lug area if you don't want to bed the action.
