After looking on the front page I am going to bed the action per bamachem's instructions and a couple of YouTube videos I have watched, so if I mess up my rifle I am holding bamachem responsible. I will post pics as I progress. Yeah c�mon. Daniel White

I just used the dremel to remove the plastic material at the bedding lugs, sprayed the action down with RemOil really good, and used the Quick-Setting JB Weld. Put JB into the area you want to bed, install action and screw it down. Let it sit about 30-min, then remove screws and twist the action a little as you remove it from the stock. It should pop right out - at least it does with a Howa. MOLON LABE

Everything seems good right now. I will have to wait till this time tomorrow to see if I screwed my rifle up. Say a prayer for me. Yeah c�mon. Daniel White
