Re: Difference in Savage 10FCP McMill & 10FCP HSPrecis

Aluminum chassis's in stocks have nothing to do with bedding. They are made to the same set of factory inletting spec's as plastic stocks, fiberglass stocks and wood stocks, and do nothing to compensate for the individual set of tolerances in each stock and each action. Only an epoxy based bedding job will reduce all the normal factory tolerances, even those on the actions themselves to esentially "zero" between an individual stock and the mating individual action, for max accuracy potential. Bedding is not "necessary" on any of them, but may or may not increase the accuracy potential.
Besides, we need something for everybody to fuss about now that the SHOT SHOW is over. </div></div>
As I said in my post, a skim bed would most likely help.
However, a fibeglass stock will compress under torque more than aluminum. Aluminum will wear.
A McMillan is a very fine stock, but should have two pillars and a bed job.
My 5R, in an HS stock, without skim bedding was a solid .5 moa gun.
