Bedding action in synthetic stock6/15/2023 My system for bedding this kind of barreled action is that epoxy is in 4 places: The bottom side of a Howa action looks like the bottom side of a Mauser action. Re: Bedding a Howa action in a Hogue Overmold stock I would love to suggest to the owner of this rifle to at least put it into a B&C synthetic, at the very least the forend will be stiffer than this Hogue and be easier to bed. If anyone has bedded an action into an overmold stock please educate me on what to do in this situation. Now of all the videos I've watched and threads I've read, there were always enough room on the sides of wood or synthetic stocks for the bedding compound to ooze through, either that or you made room, but how do I "remove" material from the overmold material? There were none! I would be lucky if I could slide a piece of paper through. Nothing really out of the ordinary until I saw the space between the sides of the stock and the sides of the action. First I would like to say thanks to Scimitar here for all the advice he has given me to help me with my first bedding job.Īfter I picked up the gun and gave it a once through, I noticed it already has pillars so I am happy for that, didn't want to have to attempt to install pillars on my first try also. Got a friend here who asked me to bed a Howa for him into the Hogue stock that came with the gun.
