I've read this before: "Bedding...when done properly...can in no way hurt the rifle."
What exactly does that mean, "when done properly"? It seems like it should be pretty easy--tape everything you don't want epoxy on, spray / apply release agent everything you don't want glued in, put in the epoxy, wait 6 - 8 hours, take out the action and metal, and let the epoxy cure for a couple days.
Is it more complicated than that? How could one "improperly" bed the rifle? Is there some way one could induce torque to hurt the rifle and groups?
Thanks gents.
