I have a Mark V 257 in a walnut stock. I'm disappointed with its accuracy so I'm going to first bed the recoil lug area with Brownell's Steel Bed and then shoot it. If its still less than ideal, I'm going to free-float the barrel. I was told to do it in that order as it might just need to be bedded and still wants the pressure from the forearm. Planning on doing the bedding job (my first ever) this weekend.
