bigcountry... i wasn't questioning your bedding. but i have been bedding riflesfor about twenty years also.i didkinda get off the subject. i was refering to the POI changes on Roskoe's gun when he takes his stock off to clean under it. by retighting the screws tighter or loser it can change the POI. even witha free floating barrel uneven presser on the action and receiver can effect the way the gun will shoot. this is just something i have learned over the years that i was sharing. it may save someone a headache someday.
