[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 1241548, member: 41122"] +1 to what jerry said. Hard to argue with that man. I could add a couple things. Like JE i have had good luck using shims around to bolt holes to plant the action as well as position the barrel in the channel. With that particular stock you would need to c'sink the bolt holes in order to use shims. Another thing ive always done with bedding blocks is dremel the high spots down, rough up the surface of everything else, and drill holes perpindicular to the surface about .2-.3 deep. When i apply the compound i use a tooth pick to get most of the air out of the drilled holes, and lug channel before i drop in the action in. This makes sure even if the compound doesnt adhere to the aluminum, it is mechanically locked into the stock and thick enough around the action that it doesnt chip. [/QUOTE]
