Tomcatt, you mentioned writing some more info on things like stocks. I just got a 700 in 308 and was wondering what were some of the things that "I" could do to help improve the accuracy of the rifle. So far I have ensured that the stock is not touching the barrel (I got the Tactical with the floppy Houge stock) by opening up the forward most part of the stock, everywhere else I could slip a bill under and slide freely back and forth (I did this in the shooting position with me behind the rifle to emulate any weight I may introduce to the bipod).

I have a feeling that my rings are too high because I don't have much of a cheek weld. I like the set up though (rings/mount/scope) and have been researching aftermarket stocks and am wondering if I could make an adjustable (comb?) by slicing out the top of the stock (picture a Bell Carlson adjustable) and making a double bar for up/down adjustment. (I'm a tinkerer)
