Bedding a hogue... Pointless?

TargetGuy · Aug 26, 2015

Has anyone messed with bedding a .920 barrel in a hogue stock?

I have a Dlask .920 16" barrel. Shoots better than me at this point.
I'm just curious if there could be any gains in doing this? Bed the action or bed the forend? Is it too flimsy of a stock to have any accuracy gains?

I like to tinker so I was just curious about this. I never bedded anything before but hey... First time for everything. Right?

i run the same, Dlask receiver and barrel combo on a Hogue stock and i would never bed it, i honestly dont think it would do anything, even IF the flimsy for-end was touching the barrel i dont think it would do anything to those bull barrels.

i do see that the new 'in' thing to do is get the receivers bolted down solid in the stocks, the new Kidd receivers have a rear piece that you can bolt down on the receiver.
so if your gonna do anything solid up the receiver would be my vote.
