[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1879654, member: 69192"] From the photo for me this rifle is "not" bedded properly; and....I'm not trying to bang anyone!! The wood around the recess for the recoil lug (including underneath the recoil lug) ought to be removed clear back, almost breaking through the wood and into the magazine well. Usually I will leave about 1/16th of an inch of wood between the clearanced wood and the magazine well so that it does not break through, then I use modeling clay inside of the magazine box to help hold in the squeezed out epoxy. The recoil lug has to be bedded to for the job to be done properly, and....the barrel ought to be floated from 4 inches in front of the recoil lug. [/QUOTE]
