[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1855996, member: 2736"] There are a few instances that full length bedding may be necessary, but rarely. When weight is placed on the forend while shooting (By pods or just resting the forearm on something) It can/will cause a shift in POI and also be inconsistent. On light weight barrels contours I prefer to fully float the barrel. On heavy contours, I like to bed the first 1/2 to 1 inch of the barrel shank as long as it is not tapered. If what you have been doing has been working, stay with that process. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
