[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1062374, member: 50867"] No, it isn't. What you are looking at is Epoxy "putty" - the Devcon Plastic Steel used by most shooters I know is a two part semi-liquid like this: [URL="http://www.midwayusa.com/product/2283647161/devcon-plastic-steel-bedding-compound?cm_vc=ProductFinding"]Devcon Plastic Steel Bedding Compound[/URL] I suspect that, depending on its consistency, putty might work but IMO it would not get into the nooks and crannies like a good bedding compound should. Addendum: From the comments from others it appears I'm hanging out with the wrong group of shooters. If the putty works as well as reported and it eliminates the need to build "dams" to contain the stuff mixed from the tubes while it cures then I'm all for it. Still, I wonder how it finds its way into the cracks and crevices (as around the recoil lug) to ensure a full contact bed. [/QUOTE]
