Bedding 700 action

[dan2116]

Is there a DVD or CD out that is thorough enough for the first time bedding project. Apparently there is no one good enough in California to bed an 700 action that anyone will recommend.

Google Richard Franklin, he has one.

Brownells and Graf & Sons sell complete kits some kits come with a how to video.

A local smith makes 'adjustable pillars', I would think that they would be helpful in a situation such as yours. http://www.scorehi.com/

I used the information found in this sight when I did mine and it came out very good. It's done by Mr. Franklin.

It's a rewording experience, and once you've done one you'll want to do them all. Best of luck.

Beware...just because someone puts out a how-to video, does not mean that is the best way to do it.
One company tells you to epoxy bed the full length of the barrel, and I know of no Smith that would recommend that method.
Sure must help sell their epoxy though.
