Bedding a Custom 10/22

[Wolf44]

Anyone done a few bedding jobs on 10/22?

If so, how much of the receiver / stock did you bed? (as in just 1-1.5" in front of the receiver or full length or spots ?)

Devcon or MarineTex as your compound for the cleanest / most professional looking job?

I bedded a Kidd Classic using pillars under the action screw and rear tang, with rubber inner tube in front of the the action for approximately 1 inch. I used accuglass from
Brownells for the pillars and rubber cement to hold the inner tune in place. I did no other bedding and went .235 at fifty yards with some old Remington target ammo from the 1980's. Barrel is free floated, you will have to test the rubber for thickness and try different amounts of torque on the action screw. I use 3 thichness of the inner tube, but all inner tube is not the same thickness. There is a lot of information on bedding a 10/22 on Rimfire Central.com. If you are bedding a Bolt gun I can't help.

I should add that i was using a Ruger walnut sporter stock.
