[QUOTE="safarihunter, post: 2965848, member: 1896"] I have a friend who wants me to bed a rifle that he just acquired that has a carbon fiber barrel. I am used to bed steel barrels but have some concerns about this expensive carbon fiber barrel Normally I apply a release agent (clear shoe wax), tape off the stock, fill all the voids, mix the epoxy and set the stock. (I am leaving out a lot of details to get to the barrel) I am concerned about getting epoxy on the barrel and cleaning it off as part of the mess of bedding. Am I going to damage the barrel finish with any of the clean up solvents? Is there anything I need to know to do differently with this barrel? Appreciate any advice Thanks [/QUOTE]
