I recently tore down my rifle and noticed that the rear of the tang is contacting the stock. It is the HS Precision M24 style stock.

I understand it is best to have the tang free floated. I guess my two options are to remove some material or bed it. I'm not sure that I want to tackle bedding right now. If I remove some material will I end up with a mess? I'm not familiar with the materials that go into this stock. It isn't fiberglass cloth or anything like that is it?
