[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 2288527, member: 24284"] On an action designed like a Rem 700, 722, 721 or a Win 70 I don't bed under the barrel at all. On a Mauser or similar design, where the front guard screw hole is in the recoil lug (which is NOT a sperate piece) I may bed a short distance under the barrel shank. It depends on the design of the action. There is no "one size fits all" when it comes to many gunsmithing tasks. The only real 'rule' with bedding is "Stress Free", where the only job of the guard screws is to secure the action to the stock, but does not induce any torque or bending of the action to do so.
