[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 1004719, member: 1290"] Don't be discouraged. You will get it eventually. :D I believe technique to get it stress free is more important than what you use. If you like Devcon, use it. For me Devcon titanium has a really short working time. I believe too fast for rifle bedding. That said I don't like Devcon for bedding. In the industrial environment it was great. Time is money. I have used it for tons of repairs and it works fine for what it's for. Patching things. I used to use a lot of it when I was a millwright. We used the various Devcon products for patching damaged steel plate, flanges and bearing bores. At one time the Army Marksmanship unit was pushing Marine Tex as does McMillan. I can no longer find any references to the Army using it anymore but McMillan states that's what they specify for all the military bedding. I use a lot of McMillan stocks and also use MarineTex for skim bedding bed blocks on HS Precision and Bell and Carlson stocks. I mill pockets for it to sit in keeping it in compression where it's strongest. It has given me excellent results year after year. [/QUOTE]
