[QUOTE="rsbhunter, post: 1773571, member: 5850"] Very good advice on the bedding process. I use acetone to decrease, and literally use the shoe polish to fill gaps, cracks, voids, etc. This is all done immediately prior to bedding, so there is a short period for the wax/polish to firm up, but not to dry out, shrink or crack. Because of paying attention (or dumb luck) to details, I have never locked an action into a stock. I like using the Devcon steel, it is heavy, but a couple ounces on a 4-6 lb barrel won't hurt, and the consistency is easy to work with. As with most jobs, measure twice, cut once.....rsbhunter [/QUOTE]
