No worries. Mine is the same, very close but does not touch. I took it out this weekend, I sometimes forget how much fun that bad boy is to shoot. Great walkabout rifle, I just slung it across my back and hiked to the top of my Dad's property. Very compact and lightweight.
Here's two pics from when I was hunting with it last season. Note I did not have a scope. But I have added the Burris Scout Scope since.
