I'm pillar bedding and then glass bedding a rifle. I'm going to build tape up on the barrel and bed the channel so it's free floating.

It's a factory wood stock. I want to keep the forend from bending around so much. I've read about people milling in carbon or aluminum shafts and then bedding the channel. I'd imagine 3/4 of that is they are readily available for free.

Has anyone ever just laid in some carbon fiber fabric under the barrel? I'd imagine it'd work. The one big downside is that if I screw this all up, that isn't coming out....

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
