Did 2 of them . Be careful getting bedding compound in the barrel lug notches. The notches will trap the barrel in. Just tape the lug or fill the notches with putty or pull the action out before the compound settles 100% . Had to knock the barrel pretty hard to break booth mine out. In the rear just put a little bit of the bedding stuff, I didn't have any issues. Just used some 1/4 I'd steel tubing my friend found me for pillars and drilled out the holes with a press. Don't forget to put release agent on the screw holes.
When dropping the action into the stock and turning the screws I got a lot of compound in the receiver. Just have inside of receiver coated with release agent and try and remove as much as you can before it dries. Don't know of a better way around this. Anyone else know?
