[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1639492, member: 87243"] There is an easier way...... Get some studs such as in the photo from your local hardware store. If you cant find any with a hex head or slot head, cut off the head and cut a slot head in them like this. Put plenty of release on them. After applying release and clay to the action in spots you don't want the bedding, drop the action (studs installed) into the bedding compound. Also, while more expensive, Devcon is easier to work with than jb weld, because it is thicker. Jb weld tends to run and leave some voids, and is also not as tough as devcon. It still works however. This is an 03 A3, not a howa, but same idea. I do all my action bedding jobs with studs installed prior to dropping the action in. Epoxy compound inside the action is a bad thing.
