Just about done with the inletting on my second stock from Richards Microfit. Still working on the barrel channel. Next task will be to bed the actions in the stocks. I typically use epoxy thickened with cabosil or wood sanding dust. I have read about people using all kinds of stuff for a bedding compound. JB Weld is real popular over on the accurate reloading gunsmithing forum But have never read about anybody using bondo. One benefit of bondo is it dries so fast. 15 to 20 minutes max. Another would be it's not a glue. It is a filler. Less tendency to glue the action to the stock.
I have the old bubba'd stock from my 96 Swede that I could use as a test.
What say you guys who have forgotten more about this stuff then I will ever know.
