col48 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 If you have a rifle bedded then after that have it duracoated does it need rebedding? dura coat first.(if you have the choice) as you are trying to make a copy of the bottom of the action for it to sit in.

Ronin Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Best practice would be to get it coated first and bed second, however, I have done several rifles both ways around and really there is next to no difference - the bedded first duracoated second rifles are a little tighter in the bedding thats all - were talking microns of thickness of coating here.

ejg223 Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Just mask off the bedded area. Trimm with a scalpel. Even use plastercine in tight areas. I'd try avoid spraying over the bedding. Some smiths prefer to bed first. Bedding a rifle without messing up a new paint job is also not that easy. edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
