how about free floating it?
The single screw system for attaching the receiver to the stock makes free floating iffy. If you have a tight receiver to stock fit you can get away with free floating. Otherwise the receiver can move around and your rifle will pattern like a shotgun. The answer to that is either bed the receiver or the barrel or both. that's also one answer to barrel droop with a heavy barrel - the other is an adjustable v-block. The v-block is what holds the barrel to the receiver and you can buy a replacement that includes a screw to support the weight of the barrel.
