Default Stock reinforcement?

Guys im working on my Traditions Evolution right now. I filled up the barrel lug area with JB Weld and will give it a couple days to dry, i did the entire lug and just used plastic wrap around the barrel and just wank it off after its dry.

Heres the deal:

When ever the barrels heats up from shooting + the hot sun during the summer, the rifle is all over the place. It got to the point where it hurt your hands to touch the stock or barrel due to the heat.

Im hoping by bedding the barrel lug and free floating the barrel, the heat wont affect it anymore. Ive already removed to tiny little dents in the stock that were rubbing up against the barrel. Once its lifted, it will be entirely free floated.

What else can i do to help this problem?
