I am going to skim bed the bedding block on my BDL. Should the action also be bedded or will this negate the intent of the bedding block system?
Also, the last time I shot this rifle, The first five shots were in a vertical string (in fact a perfectly straight vertical line) slightly less than the width of a .30 caliber apart (the holes touched and were almost perfectly uniform in distance center to center). The load was R15 with Nosler 125gr green tips. My question is could this have been caused by the effect of the increasingly warm chamber heating the powder charge enough to cause the stringing? After the first five shots, the stringing stopped. I checked the barrel to stock clearance with a bill and it wasn't touching anywhere from the forend tip of the stock to the action.
