I have decided to go with bedding the barrel of my Vanguard deluxe (wood stock) 300 weatherby. I floated the barrel earlier, by building up a void area under the front mounting screw, but I get movement on the 100 yd target. I'll have 3 holes touching, then one off to the right and high a couple inchs, then 3 straight up in a nice tight group. I am using sand bags and have always been a good (better than most) shot, but this weatherby is just giving me problems....I want the problems gone before hunting season starts. I thought about just using the bedding material in the area the action sits around the front mounting screw, and keeping the barrel floating. Not sure it that is the way to go or just make sure the problem is gone and bed the hole thing. I had wanted to leave the stock removeable, so I (or someone) could refinish the stock, due to a few dents and couple scratches, but I guess since this is only a 800.00 gun new, I'll just bed it and save up for a new american made Mark V. My question is which is the best bedding product for a magnum 300?
Any advice, on this, is welcome too.
