yes the Laminate stock with S.S. metal is great looking . i really like its floated already too. but i do not like the sticky fiber crap holding up the receiver so i ordered some new glass bedding kit to glass bed this rifle . then i will start working on a load. probably start with Mule Deer`s > little book of rifle reloading that works / Gun Gack IV.
What is the "sticky fiber crap" that you are referring to??? I sure would like to see a picture of it so we can know what you are referring to.
I cannot see any reason why you would glass bed it prior to shooting it. How so you know that it isn't just fine as is?
If you glass bed it before shooting it you do not have a baseline for comparison to see if you made any improvement or even possibly made things worse.
