In our match rifles (they had wood stocks) the prefered method was to glass bed the stocks. The reason to glass bed the stock is to keep it consistant. Wood changes with the moisture in the air and in competion shooting a little change can make a difference. With composite stocks glass bedding doesn't make as much of a difference. Does anyone know how much it helps on a composite stock? We always glass bedded from the front mounting screw all the way back.
