I would have glass bedded the action with the tang screw backed off to the point where everything worked fine, thereby reestablishing the original stock dimensions. Since I have not read otherwise, I am under the impression that the action and the wood surfaces are still properly mated when the tang screw is loosened. Then obtain a replacement tang screw from CSMC and fit it to the action so it would be both tight and properly indexed. From what I am reading, it seems like that would have solved the problem without reversing springs or filing triggers.
