You've pretty much got it. The construction of the Overmold stock makes for a foreend that has pretty much no stiffness. It will flex enough to contact the barrel if you load it on a pod or if you rest out towards the end of the stock.
I Dremeled mine out and got more clearance, but it still flexed enough that contact was made.
I ended up getting an H-S LTR stock. If I find a good deal on a PSS stock I may go with that.
I've also seen people use aluminum rods down the longitudinal axis of the Overmolded stock with bedding compound around them to stiffen it up. Way more work and weight than I would be interested in.
