Thanks buddy. I think I'll leave this one the way it is. The barrel channel and inletting is just about perfect. However, that may change and I might go wild on it like I did with EricM's rifle. I put a chit load of time into that one. Pillar bedded/glass bedded and freefloated the barrel and still kept it looking almost original to the unsuspecting eye. His is a shooter to say the least and some of my better work:

His rifle shot like this for me:

After I sold Eric my std wt 30-06 I went to work on getting my fwt 30-06 to shoot. I just bedded it without pillars and it shoots pretty good too:
