Free: Contests & Raffles.
I am contemplating the same thing with my 110 7mm mag, mine has a wood stock. Brownells has a pretty good video on the process and lotsa info on the web especially in long range hunting and sniper/precision shooting forums. I have read that bedding compounds don't adhere well to synthetic stocks but I really have no experience either way, but as I said there is alot of info out there and I am going to attempt a bedding job after Christmas.Good luck and post pics if you do it.
I have done it to a laminate stock I have for a 116 along with pillars. Just make sure to float the rear tang on the savages and lots of release agent and a container of play doh. I did this before shooting the rifle so can't say if it helped or not I just like removing possibilities of it not shooting good.

I think 116 with synthetic stock shoots under MOA even without aNY changes

I never really measured any of the groups and lost interest since I bought another wm in the process. I can tell you that after shooting that rifle I had some nice bruises on the shoulder for about a week. Haha
What made you go with a 22" barrel on your 284 campmeat? Gonna can it?
I bought the 111 in 6.5x284. I'm throwing away the stock and pencil barrel and using the action, having a Black Hole Weaponry 22 inch bull barrel made with it threaded, 5/8x24. I'll be mounting it on an MDT LSS Chassis. If you want a gun to do what you want it to do, do it.. I'll be into it for nearly a $1000 without buttstock, grip, scope rail and scope. But, it will be a shootin' machine for anything you wanna kill.

Bedding would only cost me 30 bucks that's why I wanted to do it, hoping that it would help the accuracy and the overall harmonics.
