[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 231812, member: 1290"] Why not put a little compound on the aluminum bedding blocks (skim bed) to give your action a nice place to sit? Right now you only have two very small points of contact as shown in this picture by the worn spots that indicate your action is moving around. On a Weatherby the way the aluminum chassis is cut there is no support under the recoil lug. Bedding must be put in there to support it or it bends the end of the action down as the front screw is tightened. On a Remington the accepted practice is a little clearance under the lug so it doesn't hold the front of the barrel up as front screw is threaded directly into the action and needs its support right around the screws. This is part of why pillar bedding is popular for the Remington action. [/QUOTE]
