[QUOTE="CGWVU, post: 1881274, member: 110758"] Ok guys, so you convinced me to bed my rifle. I have a few questions I was hoping you all could provide me some insight! First, I decided to use Earnie’s accuriser washers. For those of you who are unfamiliar, the concept is that you place washers between your aluminum bedding block and action so the only place the action is touching the stock is at the washers. This gives room for the epoxy to fit without stressing the action when you tighten the guard screws. My question is, should I still remove parts of the stock with a Dremel? Second, When bedding, do I have to place the magazine box back or can I just tighten without it? Should I clay it to the action? Third, Should I use the factory screws and tighten it to 10 inch lbs or should I use bolts wrapped in tape with the heads cut off? Lastly, is there any tips you have since it’s my first time? I’d hate to ruin the rifle. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
