Bedding a bergara bmr 22LR

[p5200]

Hello, has anyone bedded a bergara bmr 22LR. There seems to be a lot of slop between the barreled action and the stock. Thanks for all input!

Tighten up the action screws to 30-35 inch pound.

I'm running them at 55" pounds per User's manual. There's just a lot of movement frontwards and backwards. I make sure lug is fully to the rear before tightening the action screws though.

When you loosen them and push the lug to the rear, do you tighten the front screw first? With it at 55" pounds mine is rock solid. I would contact Bergara - you may have a stock with a problem.
