Generally speaking, there's no reason to bed the tang on a Savage because it's not a bearing point on the action like it is say - a Remington 700. Rem 700's have the rear action screw in the tang, thus you bed the tang on them. Since the rear action screw is forward of the trigger on a Savage - well ahead of the tang - the tang doesn't have to be bedded. I know Fred @ SSS free-floats the tang by wrapping it with a few layers of electrical tape.
