About to start the bedding job on my X7, and wanted to clear up something I'm not entirely sure about.
From my understanding, the inside of the pillars should not touch the action screws right? So when I go to bed it, and epoxy gets down in there, am I just supposed to drill it out after it cures? Is there a trick to keep it from getting in there in the first place?
The plan is to only bed the tang and bolt lug area, as minimally as possible. I'm gonna fill up all the space in the trigger area and mag well with putty, mash the action in to make a mold, then trim the putty so epoxy goes only where I want it.
I can't figure out how to keep it out of the pillars though. Even if I add release agent, it seems like it will lock in there.
Am I thinking about it wrong?
