[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 321911, member: 2736"] The flimsy stock does not apply much tip pressure if any and with light barrels they need some dampening in order to shoot. (Especially heavy bullets). What has worked best for me in the past on this type of rifle (Any Brand) was to fully bed the action and remove the pressure point.(Leave it on while bedding the action). then after the the bedding has cured (I like to leave it 48 hours) remove the pressure points and apply bedding in this about 1'' wide all the way from one side to the other and reinstall the action with the action screws allowing the bedding compound to ooze out with only the pressure applied by the action. After the compound sets it can be cleaned up and normally it will dampen the barrel and improve the accuracy. Also when shooting a really light rifle with a skinny stock of of any type of rest It is best to rest it on or near the front bedding screw for more consistant groups and you can lay your hand over the scope between the rings to control recoil. Just the way I do it. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
