![]() I am also going to have the trigger adjusted to about 3.5-4 lbs but I am going to wait until after hunting season to do this because I have the rifle almost where I want it for now. But my question is can you glass bed synthetic stocks and if so is there any particular product that seems to work best on those type stocks?
