"Stock came off".

You've changed something, or the rifle is settling into a new normal in the stock.

Did you alter the bedding in any way, or to put this the not PC way are you fairly experienced with pulling rifles out of their clothes and reassembling them with all the possibilities that can go south and with the individual little issues that might affect each brand or model? I'm not being a dick there, I'm fairly high time with pulling rifles down and I still fluck it up from time to time and have to go back and work out what I ballsd up.

It is most likely that (all pride aside) you've done something to it on the reassembly process, and unless there was an issue with the scope prior to chucking it back together it's unlikely you've managed to damage it during this process (unless it's taken a fall while out of the stock or something else has gone wrong). More likely to be a mechanical issue with the bedding of the action into the stock from my experience.

Noting there you fitted a rail - I'm assuming that this was for the bipod mount? Any chance this modified the foreend tip or adjusted something in the barrel channel?

Before I can offer anything more than that what rifle make and model?
