I just purchased a Bergara B-14 HMR in 300 Win Mag since my wife has announced she wants the other 300 Win Mag for hunting. The specs on this rifle say it comes with a mini-chassis molded into the stock...."The B-14 HMR rifle features our integrated mini-chassis molded into the stock to give the rifle repeatable bedding and accuracy." My other rifles I have bedded using acro-glass and when I pulled the action out of the stock to check everything over, I started to question if I should bed this rifle too. I have not shot it yet and am currently waiting on scope rings and a base to arrive which will be several days...so I would have time to bed it before being able to mount the scope on it.
My question is...Is there any point to glass bedding a stock with a mini-chassis molded into it already? I guess what is throwing me off is the statement about repeatable bedding. I appreciate any information as I don't have experience with this. Thanks in advance!!
