[QUOTE="jsthntn247, post: 786619, member: 14894"] I bedded a Rem 700 last night. I got the tape on the headless screws a little tight in the pillars and had to press down very slightly to get the action to "set down" in the devcon. When I did this I noticed the back of the action behind the rear screw go down a hair and rise back up. I pulled it out after 4 hours and cleaned the overflow in the stock up with an exacto. After putting it back it to fully cure, I can press down very lightly on the rear of the aciton and it will set down and come back up just like it did before. I am thinking this is going to cause some flex in the bedding when I check it with the dial indicator. I am wondering if I should add some devcon to the rear of the action and let if cure before I remove the tape from the barrel and lug. [/QUOTE]
