I would be more suspicious of the slip fit barrel with clamp on a 10-22 than I would the harmonics or the bedding or any of the stuff that is considered important on a bolt action.

Most of us BPCR shooters will rest our barrels in the buffalo sticks. We do make an effort to rest them at the same point, many are marked with tape at a sweet spot or just the same spot.
