Accurizing the Garand

[Scott2K]

Any steers on good sites, advice, etc. on how to maximize accuracy from your Garand short of things like glass bedding, etc.? I've seen little comments about fitting certain parts of the stock. What's important here other than the obvious stable fit of the metal into the stock? Something about the top handguard shouldn't touch the receiver and the front handguard should be a little loose?

They showed me at CMP how to take the trigger assembly out and try to jiggle the receiver by pushing/moveing the rear sight housing. No movement is good.

Want to tweak the stock a bit if needed before first shooting. I do want to keep it original and legal for the John C. Garand competitions.
