[QUOTE="keithcandler, post: 1773587, member: 3728"] Devcon Steel is world class. Marine Tex Grey is a good choice. Bisonite is perhaps one of the hardest to work with on mixing. The worst problems a guy will encounter if the action comes out of the stock easily, is getting bedding material out of tough to get to areas, IF the release agent FAILED, the very worst being the chamber or lug area in the action. Dental pics are a great aid. This is where new guys really benefit from a spray wax applied after de-greasing, twice. I have seen numerous guys stick their action in the stock with paste wax and Pam. Inexperience often is an expensive teacher. A company called Rexco makes some release agents that are fabulous, but these are for more experienced guys that bed a lot of guns. Brownell's Accra Release spray can will do 6 actions at least, and this is where a new guy needs to go with 100% NO PROBLEMS encountered. Dremel tool with various carbide bits upgrade will come down the road once a guy realizes that he can actually do a world class job on his own rifle...ebay is your friend. New guys need to get experience. Acquiring the tools to free float barrels is another can of worms. [/QUOTE]
