THat's fine, but shrinkage is only a concern when bedding an action. (You want the epoxy to remain as tight to the action as possible so it is truly "bedded".
When trying to stiffen up a flimsy stock that will have the barrel free floated, it doesn't really matter how much the epoxy shrinks. In fact, the more it shrinks, the better, as long as it doesn't pull away from the stock, and nothing shrinks that much. :)
