Just waiting to purchase my bottom metal then off to the range. Wanting to glass bed it, but I'm very new to guns and scared I'll screw it up

Here's a picture of four of my LH rifles.
Top to bottom they are;
ULA Model 20 in 6mm Remington. Wearing a Bushnell Elite 4200 3-9x40. Just over 6.5# as pictured. 24" tube.
Remington 700 KS in .270 Winchester. Early Brown Precision stocked model wearing a ridiculously heavy Vortex HS LR (for a Coues deer hunt which never materialized) in this picture. Forgot the weight and the rifle is now owned by another fine lefty. 24" tube. These IMO are the finest rifles ever produced by Remington with almost perfect ergonomics and superb balance.
Savage 116 in 6-284. This one sports a 24" 8 twist 5R rifled Rock Creek threaded nutless and chambered with a custom designed and ground reamer throated specifically for the heavyweight VLD's. Thick lug, forgot who's. 100% titanium FP Speedlock (offered for a very short time by Tubb), 5/8" Stockade BH. Custom BAS. Worked three screw. All set into a McMillan Hunter's EDGE inlet for an aluminum Rem 700 TG. Scoped with a Leupold VX-3 2.5-8x36 in S&K ringmounts.
7# 3.3 ounces as pictured.
IMO the finest lightweight Savage ever built!
Finally the jewel of my lefty collection, a LH Kimber of Oregon M84 in the ultra rare 6x47 twisted 9.5 (also ultra rare). 22" tube. Set into an MPI stock which weighs 19.3 ounces and sporting a latest model Leupold VX-2 3-9x33 Ultralight in Talley LW's.
A sweeter carrying and better pointing rifle has yet to be devised.
6# 1.7 ounces as pictured.
Here are a couple more of the Savage.
Thank you Savage for remembering us southpaws....
