[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1808331, member: 93138"] Hum, well I can tell you that the MDT chassis that I've got for a Howa Mini doesn't fit tight to the sides of the action at all. No guaranty that it will repeat location every time that I remove & replace the action. I've already started the prep to bed it using Devcon AL putty. I do not expect there to be much under the action, but there will be considerable bedding compound on the sides. This particular action presents a unique machining challenge in that the front action screw threads into the bottom of the recoil lug, and the action is flat bottomed. Mr. Murphy says that the dim between those two parallel surfaces will have a tolerance; and that the dim between the two mating surfaces in the chassis will also have a tolerance. I am expecting the bedding to 'adjust' the stack of those tolerances to be zero. [/QUOTE]
