[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 1129670, member: 1290"] If you use the actions screws to hold it in during bedding it places stress on the action. It only takes 3 inch pounds to bend an action. You got rid of the movement but stressed the action over the irregularities in the stock. Next time just use studs to align the action over the screws holes but don't put any nuts on them. While test fitting the only places that will touch the metal are a small area behind the rear tang and then where the tape centers it in the stock. The rest is floating over wet epoxy. That is a stress free bedding. The Farrell base is possibly the worst fitting Weatherby base on the planet. He said this gap is intentional to make room for epoxy. He charged me 30% restocking fee to return it. Loosen the rear end of your base and check the clearance. If it taps, (most do a little) be sure to bed it to get rid of the binding your scope tube is in. The only Weatherby base usable out of the box is the NEAR base but it still needs checked. As bad as this looks it is missed most [I][B]all the time [/B][/I]by the average do it yourself guy. It usually shows up when you take a test pass with a lapping bar.
