[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1945504, member: 26077"] I have bedded literally hundreds of rifles. I have also taught a lot of guys how to do them. Devcon and Probed are the two top of the line products and the best choice for bedding rifles by far. JB, Marine Tex etc do not do as smooth a job nor do they have as low a shrink factor, don't get as hard and don't last near as long. For those of you that find your Devcon dries out, put a piece of wax paper over the Grey Devcon and tuck it fairly tight, helps slow the drying. Also, when you mix the hardener into the Epoxy you will find that it thins out a whole bunch and makes it the perfect thickness for working with. You can keep Devcon up to 3 or 4 years and still have it work fine. Reason I know is I found a tub that got stashed way back in the wrong cupboard, decided to try it out and it worked fine, also how I figured out the cream colored hardener thins the stiff epoxy really well.
