That's a good point.  I bet you're right.  I really doubt they bed each stock to "it's" action.

I might be wrong but I doubt that your action was hand bedded to your stock by someone, rather I think they use a dummy receiver or something with dimensions that are supposed to match all actions for your model line perfectly in order to mass produce the bedded stocks. It may or may not be a perfect fit for your rifle. When you or your smith do it, it is a perfect fit. Anyone know for sure?

Thanks!  For some reason I was thinking bedding was at the barrel instead of the action.

The Browning website says they are glass bedded. Would there be any benefit in having it done again?

I'm a little ignorant on glass bedding.  How does that benefit a free-floated barrel?

Kinda like when I first handled the Remington model 700 in 1962.  Shocked
