My JC Higgins 51-L (Husqvarna 1640 action, High Standard barrel, Sears logo) has a large diameter section or boss right where the rear sight is dovetailed on. The rest of the barrel foreward of that is pretty thin.
First question is did some Model 70 Winchesters have that kind of barrel contour?
Second question is should that boss be bedded, or just bed the action and leave everything else free floating?
