Yeah thats what I was thinking .. But when I tried to explain it to a rifle company there thought I was crazy. They said that it should touch since the HOWA mini action is flat on the bottom it is suppose to touch at the recoil lug (on the bottom) and the rear tang. I appreciated your response but have decided to sent the rifle back for a warranty repair and see if they can find the problem with it, I'm just tired and frustrated with its performance. So when I get it back in 4-12 weeks as quoted for turn around time I will post another update.
