[QUOTE="Wild_Bill, post: 130125, member: 4785"] Hi i would also check the bedding what did you use? did you have any stress on the action while it was drying. If you dont leave it at least a week without touching it with a large magnum it can give you problems. When bedding onto an alloy block i use my Dremel tool with a sanding drum to fough up the area where the bedding is to go, then i enlarge the cutout for the recoil lug in front and behind to allow for at least 1/8" bedding thickness everywhere. then i place a small drill bit into the dremel and drill 1/4" holes all over the bedding area at diferent angles so when the beding compound is placed onto the stock it is pushed into the holes and bites into the stock and can not shift at all. you can never remove it without grinding it out but this is the way i believe you get the best adhesian and you dont get cracking or slipage of the bedding compound. I also use Devcon Steel for all large kicking rifles. Cheers Bill Australia [/QUOTE]
