[QUOTE="Matt27, post: 453589, member: 781"] If bedded right (stress free) bedding the tang will not matter. I have bedded both of my savages with the tang and shoot lights out. My 260, it shot close to moa at 200. Bedded it and with the same load it now shoots 5/8"-3/4" at 200. Just bedded my 7wsm and got a chance to test some loads with it at 130 yards( horses are still in my usual spot). I have 4 loads across a 1 grain spread that have 1/4" vertical and less than an inch horizontal. The horizontal is more me and some wind. Wind was blowing 20mph. Plus i have a cheapo millet on it now till my viper comes in. If you bed the tang and find a good load then turns to crap you can always take the bedding out from under the tang to see if it helps.
