This video introduces the concept of rifle stock bedding, explaining its purpose in creating a tight, stable fit between the action and stock for improved accuracy. It details how epoxy bedding compounds like Acraglas are used on wood and composite stocks, differentiating bedding strategies for hunting rifles (chamber-length bedding and freefloating) versus synthetic stocks used with bipods (full-length bedding). The instructor emphasizes that bedding is primarily for accuracy enhancement and not all rifles require it.

This guide details the process of glass bedding a rifle stock to improve accuracy, presented by Larry Potterfield of MidwayUSA.
