This was the first time I've bedded anything, and I know it could look better, a lot better, but everything is smooth as silk, the action sits in the stock ROCK solid, and my mic doesn't show any further movement when torquing the action screws.
This is a Bergara B-14 Wilderness HMR (6.5cr).
I ended up with a lot more excess than anticipated, resulting in bedding about ¾" in front of the lug, supporting the barrel chamber.
I'm wondering if I should just leave it as is, or go ahead and shave it down for a true, 100% free float?
It'll take a long while before I need a new barrel, so that's a non-issue for me.
