. I would also pillar bed the action. Since your rifle is a LSS The laminated stock doesn't necessarily have to be bedded But I would do it anyway.
You should see significant improvements from the free floating.
Why doent the LSS model need to be bedded. And how much would it cost from a gun smith typically. Or is there a do it yourself kit.
As for free floating i read that light skinny barrels dont work the best because of there lack of rigidness they get a inconsistent whip. Maybe why they are sent from factory with fore end pressure.Ithink this may be what stalking bear was saying about strees testing the barrel.Thanks for the suggestions, these are just a few more concerns in trying to figure out what will work the best for this rifle.
