I finally found a load for my new Mod. 70 sporter. One thing I noticed is that the fore end is touching the barrel back to the forward sling swivel. I haven't pulled the action from the stock yet and was wondering 2 things:
1) do the Mod. 70 sporters (wood stock) have a fore end pressure point? If so, how far back from the tip of the fore end should it be?
2) what is the torque setting for the action screws?
I'm thinking of bedding it to free float the barrel and before I start messing with things I figured I'd ask.
Thanks in advance!

Answered your PM.. I'd glass bed and freefloat it and be done. Should make it a much more consistent shooter that way.. Good luck..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

best advice for anyone doing a bedding job on a model 70 is look up BSA tutorial on how to bed a model 70 here on 24hour. Probably one the best step by step bedding thread out their.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.
