It depends. I've used Brownells Steel Bed for a long time, and I've used Acraglass and the old Bisonite on a gun that wouldn't look right with Steel Bed. But I also have that A-bolt with its factory rubber bedding.

If I were bedding an elephant gun, no question I would use a purpose-made product. But if I were visiting my cousin and trying to get his grandson's cheap .22 rimfire to shoot a little better, and knowing how it would be handled and how low the recoil was, I wouldn't wait for Accraglass to arrive in the mail. At that point, any filled slow-set epoxy is going to do OK.
