I did my first glue-in in 1977. Currently, my short range BR rifles are glued, my best "F" class gun is glued, and one 22 is glued.
When I rebarreled my Winchester Model 75, I also left off the dovetailed barrel stud. Instead, I made an aluminum sleeve with a flat bottom. The sleeve is epoxied to the barrel, against the receiver, and is bedded into the stock with three 1/4x28 screws. The scope is mounted on the receiver ring and the sleeve. Works well. I would consider the same treatment for your 43. GD
