[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1935760, member: 69192"] I did float the barrel forward from the boss to the fore end. I was not certain about the results I would get with the screw left it, and also wanted to maintain the esthetics of the rifle. My thoughts are that if I don't like how the rifle shoots with the screw left in, I can always relieve the AcraGlas from around the boss. Usually I will float the barrel from 4 inches forward of the recoil lug by putting two layers of .010 thousandths pipe wrap tape. I've never bedded a rifle with a fore-end screw before, so I am uncertain about he results. [/QUOTE]
