Reply to comment by Warsaw14 in Basement wall framing, slight gaps due to crowning of studs. Please advise on next steps if any are needed. by Warsaw14

You really really need to not worry about this amount of variation. When you attach drywall just don’t suck the screws ultra tight at these points on the wall. Or do and mud the drywall it flush later. Depending on how you lay your sheet rock it’d would be quite tricky to shim this. Cutting and sistering the studs would be easier if you really are concerned

Never leave screws loose so the drywall isn't held tight to the stud unless you like fixing screw pops later.

Then see my part where I say do it and flush out the area with mud
