im not sure about the bent stock.. the stock isnt going to effect flight provided the rail and scope are straight.

I'd contact excal and see.. im sure they will send you a new stock or ask that you send it to a dealer

I believe the stock should be straight though

Lay a strait edge along the side and check.. If it is contact Dan or dealer you got it from.. Could be a optical illusion.

I would break out a measuring tape, measure limb tip to stock on both sides to see if it actually is off center. I would be interested to see how this turns out.
Any chance of a picture?

Do you remember the old Lee Enfields had a rear stock that was pitched to one side to allow the shooter to be inline with the sights easier.
If it doesn't affect the way it shoots and it sounds like it is not getting worse you could just leave it.
But I am positive if you want it replaced Excalibur will make it right.

Hey Bob,

Is the stock actually curved, or are the limbs not 'perpendicular' to the stock?

Could be from holding it upside down. :wink:
