Cannot 'wiggle' the forearm on the action...it now must be pushed off the action and it is quite tight.

Seems to have settled in a bit as I completely reassembled the rifle Saturday evening and left it set overnight. Took it back apart yesterday and it's still tight tight...however I can force it loose by hand(barely...pushing on the top rear with my thumbs). I need to shoot the thing...I bet that will fit things up(or knock my new draws out!)
