[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 128070, member: 7"] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] With a glass bedding and a trigger adjustment, it will suit you fine as a long range rifle. [/ QUOTE ] Is it necessary to glass bed a sendero? The Remington website says that: "Full-length aluminum bedding blocks create accuracy-enhancing platforms for the barreled actions" I wasn't sure if they do this instead of bedding the action? So then, would glass bedding the action kinda be like having extra insurance? Cheers [/ QUOTE ] I don't know that anything is "necessary". It depends on your needs. If you pull a 700 action out of a H-S stock (H-S makes the stocks)... and put machinest's blue on the action, then put it in the stock and tap it with a rubber mallet, you will see that it touches the aluminum block in only 3 or 4 tiny places. If you bed it (some call it skim bedding), the action will now have full contact, and will not be sensitive to screw torque. I have bedded all of mine and about 45 for customers over the years, most shoot better, none shot worse. . [/QUOTE]
