No bedding needed for this. Follow the torque specs for your rifle and go shooting. Might want to put a tad more torque and eventually the action will imprint itself into the aluminum block by
the pounding of the action during firing.
Just make sure all is clean and bolts are in good shape.
however if you have a scope mount make sure the mount is bedded. Ideally steel base but that is true whatever the material.

No bedding needed. Is the barrel free floating?

NP. If you are courious after you clean everything very well you might put some gunsmith blue so next time you decide
to take off the stock you will see the area of contact with the action and recoil lug. might want to put some blue locktite on the action screws
but not 100% necessary. It works to stop threads from walking but also anti seize.
Take the torque wrench with you to the range and might wan to start lower and increase slightly torque to adjust harmonics to the ammo
you are using.
IMO, the S&B medalist with aluminum pilar is the best value in aluminum bedded stocks. It does the same thing as stocks costing x2 x3 times that much.

Thanks. You give me too much credit. I wish I knew as much as others already forgot.

Good. Remember they will not mate all the way but the stock is designed to adapt to the hardened steel through the regular pounding.
So check again later. The S&B makes a nice "diapason" yet the molding absorbes the harmonics pretty nicely. I think this is an advantage of this warm
chasis vs a cold one.
