I went through all this with a BC stock and it stiffens the fore end but there was still flex through the action area. I just decided to live with it but if I were to do it over again I wouldn't. I would get a new stock instead or just buy a V-Block bedding cradle and inlet that in. The full length ones stiffen the action and magazine area too. But for the cost and time for this better to sell and start over.

"When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred." Niccolo Machiavelli
