Having trouble getting this rifle to shoot well at all. I'm considering rebedding and thinking of doing pillars of my own make, filling forend webbing with spray foam, taping the barrel and bedding the forend on top the foam so the barrel will still be free floated. Of course the recoil lug will be done as well as the rear anchor point at trigger. Is there any reason why the spray foam in forend with bedding on top would be a bad idea? Really don't want to fill the forend with bedding epoxy due to weight. The barreled action is always tight to remove from stock, too tight for my liking and the factory bedding is a little miniscule and imprecise and it feels squishy when tightening the action screwed down(hence the pillars) and I can't help think there is some stock binding going on during reassembly.
