Just wanted to say thanks again to Northern Dave. I bedded my M77 and it went from 4" to 1" at 100 yards. It's a .257 Roberts and I was about to scrap it. Follow his instructions closely and don't get in such a hurry and this works great. Only made 2 mistakes. 1. That stuff sticks to everything. Broke a little chip out of the tang when I "destocked" it. Glued it back and only I know it's there. And I got a little "hair" of the stuff on the stock. 2. Brownell's instructions say to wait ten hours. Five is better. Was not easy to remove the action after bedding. Thanks Dave!
