[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1710980, member: 2736"] If its for hunting, I like to bed the entire action so it is well supported. Heating up is not an issue because most hunting situations only require 1 or 2 shots and this assures that every shot will be in the same place barring damage to the rifle or scope. I also recommend that the action screws be torqued gradually until the proper torque is reached. Normally if the stock is bedded only I recommend 30 to 35 inch/pounds to avoid compressing the wood. The third screw in the trigger guard should only be hand tight to prevent flexing the action. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
