I did a pre64 action with a Shilen SS match grade #2 barrel with a little upward pressure in a Brown Pounder, many, many years ago. Worked great for me. YMMV. I think I remember reading how to do this in a Rifle magazine article. This had to be 25+ years ago. The article described hanging the rifle upside down from tie points at the front and rear rifle sling studs. Then hanging x amount of weight from the end of the barrel as the bedding compound set up. It was a detailed article. My how things have changed.
