[QUOTE="West Calamus, post: 2325405, member: 110228"] Well heck I might as well throw my opinion in too. Free float at least 2 business cards thick on wood stocks and fore get the dollar bill trick. Bed tang, lug and about 1 inch into barrel shank. All my rifles this way except for a 300 WM # 6 contour 26 in. with brake setting on a bi-pod with tension on bi-pod. About half way between sling swivel and fore end of stock bed only bottom of stock channel (not sides) 1 inch. Helped that particular rifle. [/QUOTE]
