Looks real good!Well I ripped it apart. There are images before I clean it up. The stock is just primered and isn't finished, I wanted to bed it first before paint. The bedding in the stock is pretty dang hard. I poked around it in a few non critical locations with the point of a razor blade and it seems pretty hard. I bolted it back together and will let it sit until I mill out the trigger pocket and a couple other spots.

In my experience, and I use it often, it takes a good 24 plus hours to fully cure. I very much like the long working time and bubble free imperfections In the finished result.So I bedded a rifle with Pro Bed. I followed the instructions and weighed the resin and hardener using the ratio in the instructions, 100 parts resin to 77 parts hardener. According to Charlie at Score Hi this stuff is very forgiving on the ratio. Well after about 32 hours the bedding is still able to be scratched with a fingernail. This stuff seems much softer than Devcon 10110 or it's not curing properly? The rifle is in my basement and it's about 65 degrees down there. I put a space heater on the bench to warm up the stock and even after 10 hours with the space heater the bedding still isn't any harder. Thoughts? Thank you
Yes it's a target rifle. I am building an FTR rifleThat's high quality looking work, @Jud96! Is it a target rifle?
I've used probes a few times and really like it. The surface texture to me seems a little different than other bedding, but it seems to get rock hard after several days.
