[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1678668, member: 9308"] I'm seeing this a little differenty. Changing to a stock with an aluminum bedding block IS the 'new' variable. He should test it. If it doesn't work to his satisfaction, THEN he should proceed to glass-bedding it. One variable at a time. That is the recommended method. Besides, he's voiced that he doesn't feel confident with glass-bedding. If the gun shoots great in the new stock, as is, he can avoid going down that road entirely. That would be a positive thing. Because...why? If he fires the gun in the new stock FIRST it will...(please fill in the blank for me.) It's not going to damage the gun. It's not going to damage the stock. It will merely allow him to see what changing the stock alone "got him" in regards to accuracy for his rifle. If he is dissatisfied, then glass bedding would seem to be in order as the 'next variable' to test. I respect that you are trying to get the OP on the best track, fastest, but glass-bedding is a tedious job and their are risks in not getting it right. Testing his new stock first hurts nothing. And it could save him some hassles. Not sure I understand the opposition to this approach. [/QUOTE]
