[QUOTE="Tac-O, post: 1891428, member: 109994"] I haven't been able to get out to shoot it yet, but I did pick up a Forster coax case and cartridge inspector yesterday. I decided to use the dial indicator and mounting rod to check my bedding job. I quickly made up a simple barrel mounting block that has a couple of set screws, one for the barrel and one for the dial indicator mounting rod. I checked it by attaching it to my barrel and in various positions on my stock to be able to check movement in each axis when loosening each action screw. I had the screws torqued to about 42in/lbs and got a max of about 0.0013 deflection when loosening the front screw. About 0.0005 for the rear. I did this test holding the muzzle up at the 1oclock position as well as horizontal and achieved the same results. It should be good to go!! [/QUOTE]
