[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 520511, member: 3745"] Free float the barrel and bed the action. Just do it..... I have several rifles with HS Precision and 1 Bell & Carlson stock. The first thing I did with them all is bed them. I know they will say with the aluminum block they do not need to be bedded....... WRONG! Take your action action screws out and turn the rifle over, what happens???? The action falls out. All that slack is room for the action to move around in the stock, [B]and it wil[/B][B]l[/B]. You cannot get the screws tight enough to stop it. Where there is room, it will move. All my rifles are bedded, and if you remove the action screws you can turn them upside down and shake them and the action will not fall out of stock. Usually they take several good bumps with the palm of my hand on the barrel to get it pop lose. Use Devcon Steel putty and mould release all available from Midway, or find a local gunsmith to do it for you. [/QUOTE]
