Two interesting issues....
CYA friends:
I was looking through some old photos trying to locate some Falcon ignition pictures....
And I ran across these two pictures......
So......................
Until I locate my Falcon ignition pictures I thought I'd post these two pictures...
The first:
I'm not a professional bedder, but, if I take my time I can produce zero run-out bedding...
One thing I learned from Darrell Horsley.......
Never place the pillars directly against the action......this is a no-no.
If you do, no matter if you do a skim coat after the initial bedding, the bedding will shrink away from the action leaving the action resting on the pillars, only.
Just like this picture....
_____________________________
The second subject is similar to one CYA member Deveng brought up some time back about side weights on a MD to try to eliminate any possible horizontal....
This is something I spearmented with years ago on an iron sight 3-P rifle..
The adjustable weights are attached to the fore end of the stock, not the barrel...
This way the weights won't affect the barrel vibrations......only the rotational torque of a right hand twist barrel.
