    Bedding a stock is an hour max, especially something as simple as a Rem 700 or a model 7. Sako 75's are the worst. Buy the compound and do it yourself. It is really easy to do.

    I don't recommend people to others for these sorts of jobs. As you know , something may go wrong and then, who gets blamed

    However
    Jim Carlson has bedded my CZ 223, BDL 30 06 and Husqvarna 9.3x62.

    I generally do stuff only once and move on it if doesn't work out.

    Thanks @jakewire, my dad is a commercial shooter down your ways, he puts a lot of lead down range each year and only uses Jim for any rifle work, as you know Jim has had to slow down in recent years but his work has always been top notch and I found him great to chat to, he always gives my dad some friendly stick as hes one of the only commercial guys that has always used 7.62x39, but he has actually recently finally managed to talk him into giving 223 a go!
