[QUOTE="Tommo64, post: 1848178, member: 107976"] So, I went and bought myself some Acraglas, started stripping the rifle down to do some prep work on the stock but then I notice there are a number of voids in the bedding areas around the front and back action screw holes (see attached pics). Should I fill these voids with the Acraglas or fill them temporarily with modelling clay and just work around them? The forestock has much bigger voids which I know can be filled with a lightweight filler to improve the rigidity of the stock without adding excess weight. I guess for the bedding process I could just use modelling clay to form a temporary dam? I am just a little concerned that with all these voids there doesn't seem to be much area to bed onto. Also, in the Acraglas kit there is a small back of fiberglass floc but there seems to be no mention of this in the instructions. I am guessing this may be more for repair work?
