I am calling them first thing in the morning. Can't believe this is happening. Here is a shot of the measuring of the cast on which is more than 1/4" and is clearly seen with the naked eye. In fact, I noticed it as soon as I threw the gun to my shoulder. Again, it was clearly agreed to in writing there was a three day non-firing inspection period and he was notified within an hour of receipt of the gun. There were some other issues as well but I would have dealt with them, like the drop at comb was stated as 2 1/4" and it actually measures 2". Was told the finish was original but it has had coats of finish added. Those were bad enough but a left hand stock!
