Atticus,

What (mumble) said about adjusting/shimming stock to receiver works. Went through similar experience recently with a 20 ga 870 Youth - just short for me.

Shimmed the upper portion of the receiver (.045" I think) where it makes contact with the receiver which effectively pushed the whole barrel aspect downwards.

This may work fine if it's a fit problem, but wouldn't if it is bead sight relative to receiver groove.

Far as shims go, I did have some very hi-tech, super-nifty platic shims left over from engineering days. I'd try backs of match books if that's all I had. See if it works & go nifty later.
