You "guarantee" it?
How can you say something like that when the rifle pictured isn't even a 16.5"? There is something wrong with these guns; the 20" AACs shoot very well. That's literally the
exact same advice I was given by folks. Instead of ditching the rifle as I should have, it only caused me to dump more and more money into it. I'm very bitter.
The thread linked to above is evidence. I was shooting 5 MOA and had a professional bed my barreled action in an HS Precision stock and throw a Timney 510 in it because "It's the stock, I guarantee it". My precision wasn't improved until the only factory part left on that gun was the receiver. Am I happy with it? Yes, but for the money I've got in it I could have built up a Surgeon action with the same parts and still came out ahead.
I hope replacing the stock makes it better, but don't be unrealistic Max. A stock isn't making a sub MOA capable stick a 5 MOA shooter. Before you end up $2,000 in the hole taking advice from people who haven't had this problem, try to return the rifle to Remington. I had already cut up the stock when I spoke to them, but if you decide to keep it you've gotta be in for the long haul... Use a dremel to cut away the stock from the barrel and use a torque screw driver to evenly torque the action screws. It will be a complete waste of your time (I did it, too) but it will show you the barrel is the POS and that it isn't the stock.
Here are pics from when I took it to the range after throwing it in an HS Precision stock that was bedded and putting a Timney 510 on it. You can see I was shooting BH Match and FGMM.
I have nothing against Koshinn, but I spent a few weeks being angry as **** at people who kept giving me "Guarantees" about what I needed to do to get my rifle to shoot because no one wanted to accept that Remington 16.5" barrels are complete shit.
This is how it shoots with a Krieger barrel
...trying to tell me it was the ****ing stock. Give me a break.
