[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 1240877, member: 1290"] If the barreled action was supported at the end of the stock and on the tang that is the only place to secure it while it sets up. If you taped or strapped it down in the middle it flexed the action. Redo only don't tie it down anywhere it is not supported and that should only be at the tang and at the end of the stock. I bed the pillars and the whole action in one step. Bedding the front lug tight is perfectly fine on Weatherby's. Marine Tex is ready to shoot in 48 hours. When cured in the safe at 72 degrees I have shot them the next day. 12 hours. Leave a thick gob on your mixing plate to test for amount cured. When in doubt or if there is no hurry cure it as long as you want. The Hoover Dam is still curing. [/QUOTE]
