bedding

I will start from the begginging! I bedded an HS stock I bought with steel bed and it turned out real good! As soon as I got it bedded was going to let it sit up, i looked down the barrel and saw that a little bedding had come through the front action screw and got into the lug area. I...

I purchaced a new Manners T2A stock that was inleted for a Remy SA and Surgeon Bottom Metal. Question, is it necessary/suggested to use the pillars that come with the bottom metal or just bolt and go? Thanks

Hi guys, I want to buy a A5 off of a hide member, he sent me pics of the stock and he said that he got some oil in the action inlett of the stock from when he cleaned and lubed his barreled action. Im worried that when I bed the action to the stock, the bedding compound wont stick properly...

What is the best way to remove old bedding compound? Will rebarrel and switch over to badger DBM setup and want to make sure the pillars/bedding is correct. Thanks

I remember seeing a post sometime ago that referred to a "sagging barrel". Is this in reference to a heavy barrel that has been fre-floated? I have just free-floated a 26" barrel that is 1" in diameter at the muzzle and all of a sudden I have lost some accuracy. Is there a problem with trying...

OK I should have saved targets. My rifle is on a B&C stock. Unbedded it held under .5 and better. I bedded the rifle and now I can not get it to hold that to save my life. I know its not the barrel it was installed by G.A. precision. There is nothing touching front or sides of recoil lug. Rear...

Guys, I have a McMillan stock inletted specifically for a Surgeon action, with pillars installed by McMillan. The stock is also inletted for my barrel. I am considering skim bedding the action (with integral recoil lug) before I fit my barrel to the action. Any reason why you wouldn't...

I'm sorting out my bedding process for my build. I plan on using Devcon steel putty. I have a FN SPR action with the factory detachable magazine and a McM A3 adjustable stock with machined in pillars. I've read the 6mbrr bedding topic and the long post in here. Both are installing pillars at...

Does anyone know who beds H-S precision rifles? I know that H-S does not recomend it.

Going to be pillar and MarineTex bedding a Win. M70. Looking for pics of bedding process and/or finished jobs. Looking for tips on M70 bedding as well. I have bedded once before with MarineTex, but that was a 10/22, so this is kind of new territory to me. Its a pre-64 if that matters Will be...

I have a H-S rifle. I am thinking of JB welding the action to the stock with no release agent? I will tighten to 60 inch pounds. The action and barrel are stainless. Has anyone done this?

Is it necessary to pillar bed a Macmillan A4?

While digging through some junk I found a spare wood stock for my pre-64 M70. I always have wanted to work on this gun, but did not want to ruin the value. Lucky find for me! I have heard that one should bed the action and the entire barrel channed on skiny barreled guns. What do you guys...

Ok is it pretty much the same as a centerfire? Im running a 581 and dropping it into a stock I made but I wanted to decide on bedding before I finish the inletting. The barrel is stock and a thin .620 from breech to muzzle. I did add another action screw and will have it in pillars. Do you bed...

Is there a problem with bedding a trued Remy into an AICS like AI does their AWs? I couldn't help but wonder after seeing that video on changing AW barrels. I realize you'd want to use a over sized lug, and probably tig or pin it to the receiver. Searched the Hide and didn't find my...

I am planning to switch the stock on my PSS to Mcmillan HTG stock soon. Does this stock need to be bedded to get the most out? or can i just use it out of the box? Thanks for your help. 45

thanks, gonna just buy another stock

So, i read a lot about different types of bedding (which i really don't know much about, i only have AR precision rifles) and i am curoius to how each works? Like, i know what epoxy bedding is, but how do you "glass bed" or "pillar bed"? Thanks.

if I have a stock, that is bedded for a certain action, and decide to place another barreled action in that stock/w same recoil lug, and action, do I need to do anything, I would imagine if the barrel channel is diffrent I would have to open up. The new action should be able to slide right in...

i have a remington 700 sps and ive heard that bedding the action and free floating thebarrel make it significantly more accurate. is this true? and is so would i just take my rifle to my gunsmith to have this done?
