[QUOTE="Joel Russo, post: 1277579, member: 6152"] Yes. The theory is to support the barrel on one end, and the action on the other end, both free floated, and supported by approximately 6" of surface rather than a 1" tennon. The block is bedded tight, but the whole barreled action is removable. This particular rifle has a 30" barrel and a Hall magnum action. As for bedding in front of the lug on a conventional build... I have done so with great success on larger builds. Here is a stock that I bedded for a .338-.408 improved. I put a healthy pad under the chamber of the barrel. This rifle shoots .5" groups at 300 yards.. The target is the first three shots at 100 yds. My "go to" mile rifle is the same caliber, and bedded the same way. It has gone 3.806" at a mile....
