You need to specify what kind of bedding job you are doing before you can say "I do X" or "I do Y'.
Are you skim bedding an already bedded action? One that is pillar bedded? or one that has no previous bedding?
I've done it both ways depending on the situation and they all shot good.
The ones with tape are easier to take out of the stock. The ones without will scare you as in "Oh S***, this action might be glued in permanently". So far all have come apart eventually.
As a side note, back when the Army highpower team used to shoot M1's they just epoxied the actions into the stocks permanently. Nice to have taxpayers paying for your rifles.
What would you do with a Kimber Montana, tape the lug or not?
