[QUOTE="Darktimber, post: 1718024, member: 106176"] I believe he means that he uses all thread in place of the action screws. You can make them a few inches longer than your action screws and screw them into the bottom of your reciever that way you have something to tap on from the bottom to "pop" you action out when your bedding is set up. Also put 2 layers of painters tape on the front and sides of the recoil lug and none on the back of the lug. And you may need to relieve some stock material behind the lug to make sure you get a good layer of bedding back there. I would recommend waiting to sand down the pressure points at the tip of the fore end until after you bed the action. [/QUOTE]
