    If your stock is synthetic plastic,leave it as it I is. Is will probably not shift much over the year temperature and climate variations unless you leave it baking in the sun.
    If it is wood, you might see some variations of the center of your groups, depending if it is rainy of wet. If it does not move too much and you check the zero keep like that, other wise definitely glass bed it. To glass bed, I usually keep the lump on the barrel Chanel and just drop the action in the stock with out tightening to much the screws. Once resin is set, I remove the action and grind the lump and put the action back in place and tightened for good. ( it is a brief and fast description , I take a lot more care about a lot of details when I bed my rifles...too long to write on a post )

    it is a synthetic stock and it seems to be stable enough, I was thinking accuracy may benefit if the upward pressure was removed from the barrel and made it free floating. Might have the opposite effect though!!
