Thread: Bedding tikka

Just bring this old thread up ,,,,,just had two l/hand T3 boyds stocks turn up ,,,,nice stocks but the inletting is average ,,they have a steel recoil lug fitted so will use that ....will make sure after bedding that there is clearance on the top and rear of the lug once bedded and i guess just make sure when epoxying that the front face of the recoil lug is hard up against the action slot? ,,,,i see on your stock LR youve bedded the barrell area in front of the recoil lug?? bout an inch the go??
The plastic trigger guard as average as it is will have to suffice at the moment but i do think i'll machine up some aluminium pillar beds at the same time being a timber stock ,,,,anyone done these for a T3?? or any other do/do not's?? cheers

if you do bed could you please open a new thread and show the whole process? for those of us "mechanically" challenged individuals.
would be great to see the whole process from start to finish
thanks

yea thanks. have looked at Nathans vids before. very good and helpful.
And hes upgraded his website!!

My mate did mine for me using MatchGrade Bedding Products - Terminal Ballistics Research.
Was a improvement in the feel, and the gun shot better groups,
Well worth doing, especially if you got a good mate who can do it for you

Cheers
