[QUOTE="jarnold37, post: 1887711, member: 29241"] Whatever bedding compound is used, be sure to apply the release agent. Then do it again to be safe. Things can go wrong so be careful. I use modeling clayto fil the magazine well and trigger area. Over time I started masking off the opening in the bottom of the action and area for the trigger even while using the clay. Used to much clay in magazine well and when I set action down compound it pushed up on tape and it pulled loose and compound went up and forward into the bolt lug recess. So be sure to put release agent everywhere. I use Johnson floor wax which about like shoe polish but a little softer and creamier. I have heard of imperial sizing wax being used but not sure. But just figure to have release anywhere the compound may ooze [/QUOTE]
