I own two Model 70's (308 Win) but both of them are push feed designs. I found that by just bedding the recoil lug and tang their accuracy improved, meaning an end to the flyers that usuall occured when shooting 5 shot groups. When I first took the barrels off their stocks, the recoil lug on both was bedded with just a dab of synthetic resin or epoxy (which only covered at most 1/4 of the lug area). I scraped it out and bedded the back of the lug and the channel under the receiver and the tang. No other modifications were made to the stocks. Hope this helps.
