Can you share what profile your barrel is?

It is their hybrid light contour.

Have killed several bucks with this rifle and it is also the most accurate and best feeding rifle I’ve ever owned. 30-06 stainless T3x. I had it bedded by Tumbleweeds Custom Guns in a Stocky Hunter stock. I didn’t love the fit direct from Stocky’s and as you can see Mark’s bedding is impeccable. Also first go with UM rings. I can’t imagine I’d go back to anything else.

Little slow with ELD-X but the rifle is the most consistent accuracy wise I have ever owned. Packing up for Mule Deer.

That looks really good. Did you happen to do an accuracy test before and after bedding the rifle? And if so, did it improve?

Rifle was dead nuts with the factory stock and 180 TTSX. I switched stocks to save weight and went with Eld-x. I never shot the stocky without bedding because in my opinion the fit sucks without bedding. It clearly rubbed one side of the barrel. It drops in like a custom rifle now with equal clearance on both sides.
