[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 416549, member: 3733"] I don't use release on the action or base, If you ever need to remove the base, just remove the screws and smack with a plastic mallet. Grease your screws when bedding the base that way you can remove them after the epoxy sets, degrease the threads and holes then blue loktite and reinstal screws As was mentioned when bedding the base just make light metal to metal contact with one screw in the front ring and one in back usually the middle 2 work the best. Your not trying to squeeze all the glue out, but make a gasket so as to not stress the reciever or base. The problem with the bases not setting flat on the action is usually the actions fault. After machining the actions are hand polished on a wheel to remove tool marks, and that usually makes the back of the action "tail off" causing the poor fit. [/QUOTE]
