As mentioned in a previous post, I wiped most of the grease out of the stock when I bought the rifle but... I didn't wipe it all out. I wasn't sure that I should be cleaning all of it out and mostly just removed what I thought was excess. Do you think I should give the stock and the action a good cleaning and get ALL the grease out? Do you think the grease could be causing the action to slip around after each shot?
ANY oil at all between a stock and action is no good for accuracy.
