Just hope that the guy who did the bedding job did it right, or the action might not come out of the stock; it might be in there forever, or until you saw the stock off!
Hm. Brings to mind when I bedded my Winchester. I mixed the bedding compound, and used automotive wax as a release agent. When I mated the action to the stock, my first warning sign was when a bunch of it came into the magazine well. Instead of pulling it apart and cleaning up, I just got it out of the mag well and left it alone.

The good part is that my bedding of the rifle turned it into a true 1/4 minute rifle--it puts 175 grain MatchKings into under a half inch consistently at 100 yards.

The bad part is that the rifle hasn't been apart in over 5 years.

Don't ask me how I know.....
