[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 845316, member: 41442"] Most guns shoot better floated or at least more consistant. I float about any new rifle i get. But when i do i also bed them properly. Sometimes a gun thats not bedded properly will shoot better with forearm pressure. I think the pressure kind of makes up a bit for the lack of bedding holding the barrled action a little more secure in the stock. Ive bedded and floated many many rifles and have yet to see one shoot worse. Ive seen the shoot drasticaly better and ive seen some that shoot a little better and ive seen a few that it didnt do much for. If you have a pour barrel bedding and floating isnt going to help. But id bet you wont see to many guns used in shooting competitions that arent floated and bedded properly. [/QUOTE]
