Free Floating Savage Tang

[Taxman1002587]

I glass bedded a Savage solid bottom RH single shoot action in their factory laminated stock. The tang is free floated on the right side,bolt handle side) all the way up to the cut out for the bolt release-about three inches- so it is free floated to where the bedding begins -- once I free floated the tang the bolt cut out and bolt release/sear cut out by design added to the distance. On the left hand side it is free floated about half this distance. Should the tang be free floated on both sides up to the point the bedding begins - this would be basically free floated to the rear factory pillar?

I kept both sides the same on my Savage. Seemed to work out ok.
