[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1523646, member: 10755"] None of my F-Class rifles are bedded forward of the recoil lug. Barrels are 1.25” or 1.5” from chamber to muzzle. However, all of my hunting rifles have the Knox form, however long/short it is, bedded. This is due to most hunting rifle stocks, even those with an aluminium bedding block, are not as stiff as a comp rifle stock and appear to sing or resonate. The bedding dampens this. The only stocks I do not bed forward of the recoil lug are HS-Precision VSSF II or Sendero II stocks, they are very stiff as they come. As are McMillan stocks I normally use. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
