There’s two schools of thought about whether you bed the entire action or just do it at two points. My personal opinion is that two point bedding is more stable and if the stock does develop a twist or a bend there will be less or no torsional stress applied to the action. Perhaps with a high quality, high dollar fiberglass stock it doesn’t matter? I only have walnut stocks so I think, for my application, the two point bedding is what makes sense. I think a cheaper plastic stock would certainly qualify for a two point bedding.
I would think there is a flaw in your thinking.. if a stock starts to twist, it's gonna twist from that point and everything after it.. I would think by bedding the entire action you are making that entire area stronger and less likely to twist.. JMO
i wonder how many flipped their rifle over and their barreled action fell out? great video though that bedding is prestine and now i know i needed to polish the wax off. Thank you sir
Love watching real craftsmanship. Thanks.
Dang never seen a bedding video where the smith turns it upside down without the screws in. That's insane precision on a bed job. Nice work.
He was definitely one of the best! People all over the country knew Robert.
RIP Bob, great to see the magic again!
Man, my new favorite, generous Gunsmith. Gone too soon. My best to his family. I'm sure he knew the value of his time.
Wow. The knowledge being shared here is amazing.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
best how to yet on bedding. Nice close up photography!!! We can see on our iPhone/iPads
Thanks for sharing this. Love to see all your videos.
Robert died yesterday. Very sad. Rest peace, Mr. Gradous
No tape needed. Sno Seal as a release agent.
Super great guy!!! I have one of his rifles

Anyone who owns a Gradous rifle or seen how one shots, you’d see the answer.
Did I miss the part about setting the barrel into the stock after applying the bedding compound?
