Love this build! Well done!

thanks I just got some more devcon plastic steel to redo the barrel bedding and clean up the rest of the bedding.

jbweld marine does not get glass hard it stay a little soft not good for a barrel bed and the bedding should stop at perfect perpendicular to the barrel the sides should not swoop forward as they do on mine.

Nice job and pictorial but as far as accuracy, and you would know better than me shouldn't the action on a 10-22 float and the barrel bedded around the barrel support and then several inches towards the front and then free float towards the end of the forearm? I just mess around with an old one that is all factory for plinking but have seen some done like I described that were pretty tight grouping.................................Now I see PST were updating as I was writing looks like some more has been going on. Have a blast nice rifle.

The kidd supergrade isknown for there amazing groups and they bed the entire action and free float the barrel. I know that free floating the action is a common practice but I am going to try this bedding job and if it does not work then I will bed the barrel.
