[QUOTE="Quarterhorse, post: 886113, member: 73522"] Tape the barrel to float it? - Yes Tape the tang? - When I tapped the action in to hold it I did it in such a way where the tang was raised, I'm sure there are other options and better ways to do it. How much material used? I mixed up a more than I needed, put it on the areas I was bedding, and laid/secured the action in the stock. I have no idea how thick it is at any point. Once cured I cleaned the areas up. The actual process is easy, it's prepping everything, making sure you don't get bedding compound where you don't want, and prepping EVERYTHING with release agent so NOTHING sticks where you don't want. I also prepped the stock where it was going to be bedded by scuffing it with 180 sand paper just to give it tooth. Is also watched hours of youtube vids to make sure I had a good idea before I started the project had read a LOT of forums.... [/QUOTE]
