I agree more is better I was working on a guys 700 this week in the typical sps stock. It was floated some but not stiffened. I shot 3 shots with the factory gun right at MOA with a bipod. I then put the stock under some side pressure where the stock was touching the barrel and got a variation of about 2+ inches in the shot. I have since floated the barrel more and stiffened it with bedding compound in the fore end. It made it a little heavier but I know if the hunter is in a quick hunting situation that he can not tweak the stock to touch the barrel.
