    Gunsmithing How Much Glass Bedding

    How much glass bedding (Devcon) do you recommend behind the recoil lug on a small caliber rifle (22-250). What I'm asking is how much of the stock should I take out to fill with bedding.

    Gunsmithing How to tell if my action needs bedding?

    I searched and didnt come up with anything useful. I just got a B&C stock, and to see how much contact I had with the forward bedding area, I put a little grease on the bedding block. Screwed on the action and then took it back off. It looks like I am only getting contact with the bedding...

    Gunsmithing Bedding over an HS Precision bedding block?

    Anyone ever did this? I have a 700P in 300WM that should shoot more consistant than it does. When looking at the bedding, the reciever is only contacting the bedding block in about 5 high spots and it looks like you might expect if steel was rubbing on aluminum because the fit was poor. Was...

    Gunsmithing Floating/ Bedding

    Just did a bedding job on my B&C, from the DIY post. My question is how far back should the barrel be floated? Is it all the way back to the lug, or how far? Wondering if I screwed up. Barrel is floated all the way back to about 1" from the lug were it runs into the bedding compound.

    Gunsmithing Badger M5 Bedding Pillars

    I see that the M5 comes with bedding pillars, but the M5 floorplate does not. Would someone be willing to educate me on the need for the pillars with the M5? Are these the same pillars that one would use if they were pillar bedding an action? Just wanted to get gain some knowledge in this area.
