Seems that an easy enough adjustable unit could be sort of pillar bedded into the front end of the stock & maybe that's what was refred to above.

A threaded insert at the fore end pressure point which contacts a contoured (to match barrel contour) shim. Start with free float & adjust presure by just turning in the screw to make further & increased presure at the barrel.

Using a threadlocker (222?) would keep it from backing out but still allow for adjustment. Have the screw head counterbored/recessed & all set.

Comments?
