    G'Day R93,

    Yes that is how you should bed any rifle action where the front action screw, threads into the action body!
    With actions like Mauser, Brno/CZ, older Sako and Howa type centerfire actions, where the front action screw threads into the bottom of the recoil lug.
    The bottom of the recoil lug needs the make full contact, with the bedding at the bottom of the recoil lug recess!

    Given this and the above images, my Win Mod 70 7mm Rem Mag rifle, consistently shoots 1/2" to 5/8" groups!!!
    R93, I wonder how much the rubbery like flexible nature of the Winchester (and Browning) bedding material, has to do with this???

    Doh!
