[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1277544, member: 30902"] That's the nice thing about hanging out here. I don't care how long a guy/gal's been doing this you can learn something every day if you read enough. Personally I like bedding in front of the lug at least to the full length of one loaded round just to relive stress on the tenon and action screws. Some rifles don't like it and you end up sanding it back out for a full free float but, that's not just a whole lot of work. I've also found that you have to be extremely rigorous in ensuring your action/trigger guard screws are always torqued exactly to the same spec's you used when doing the bedding job. Any tighter and it puts a bind on the tenon/action interface. [/QUOTE]
