Search the gunsmithing forum there many DIY posts with detailed instructions which are very good then you can decide yourself. Also look into skim beading.

Follow the instructions in the post. Read several of the DIY's and you'll see they are all very simular. I can tell you that the method I use is fool proof. Do exactly as it says and you'll be GTG. The dry fit is crucial though to get a perfect fit.

The first one is always the hardest but you'll be fine. Even if the bedding has problems, air pockets, chips etc. a dremil tool will be your friend and you can re-bed it. It's just that simple.

Several places carry the Devcon 10110 but here one I found by searching "Devcon 10110" on google
