Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Finally said screw it and decided to build a tackdriver from scratch

Here are the bedding photos I promised.

I bedded the rear of the receiver and the forward barrel channel as shown. I then came back and bedded the V block with mild downward pressure. Once it's all dry, I can snug the action screw which I feel dampens vibrations, stiffens the barreled action and eliminates movement from recoil.

Be sure the safety is in neutral position so it won't dig into the wood as the barreled action is removed from the stock.

Not my prettiest bedding job, but it seems to work.
