[QUOTE="Kevin Cram, post: 277268, member: 2215"] You shouldn't have any problem free floating back to the lug. The only recommendation I have is on the Boyds stock, I would have it pillar bedded so you have a non compressable surface for the guard screws to tighten up on. The Choat stock with the bedding block is almost like having it pillar bedded. Either way your not going to damage anything with a light recoiling varmint round and a free floated barrel. Don't over tighten your guard screws when you do screw the action down, I use and recommend 60-65 in/lbs, but that's a whole other discussion and I don't want to beat a dead horse. Good luck with your project. [/QUOTE]
