[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1421542, member: 87243"] I have done quite a few, I strip the action and use plumbers putty to fill voids and keep it only where I want in the stock. Buff on kiwi polish and use devcon plastic steel epoxy. Tape the outside of the lug, make sure to put release on the tape too. I use tape on the barrel near the end of the stock and tang to get the action lifted just enough to do a full bedding. I tape off everywhere I don't want it to get, and have plenty of q-tips, paper towels, and acetone near by to keep things clean. Here is what my process usually looks like and how they turn out. I spend WAY more time on prep then I do on the actual bedding. After I put it together, I use electrical tape as it has the right amout of pressure, and stretch it tight around the action and stock. This is less pressure than torquing the screws, and gives a stress free full bedding job. [/QUOTE]
