beding M-305

[_CCCP_]

what do you think about beding the cheap chinese wood stock? Can it help acuracy?

thanks!

My advice to you is to get a synthetic stock or a good quality wood stock. The Chinese wood tends to be softer than its western counterparts.

Yes. Bedding the mystery wood (Chu wood) stock will help. Make double-plus sure you spend the time to degrease the wood to let the epoxy adhere well, and you are good to go.

That's a nice tutorial there, thanks for the link.

Is the procedure the same for bedding the fiberglass stock? Any different materials etc that may be needed?

When I bedded the chu wood stock, I just used cheap epoxy. When I do the MK II/Final version stock(s) I'll be using the Brownell's "Steel Bed"
