[QUOTE="brentc, post: 624920, member: 16938"] How about this. First things first, make sure the barreled action fits in the stock properly before you do anything. That aluminum bedding block isn't a doing it's job if you're not using it for the structural stability it is meant to provide. You will never get a proper stress free fit into the stock the way it was designed until you get it to where it doesn't bottom out in the barrel channel when you torque the action screws. Once you get it to where it fits properly into the stock, then you can bed it to a perfect fit. Don't try to polish this turd if you are expecting decent results. It will not hurt that stock one bit to sand a bit of material away for barrel clearance. This is one of the most basic procedures to ensure proper fit. [/QUOTE]
