Follow our detailed bedding process to successfully full-length pillar bed your Tikka rifle. This demonstration was performed in our AllTerra Carbon Hunter Tikka Stock - however the same process can be followed using other stocks.
Supplies and Materials Needed:
Devcon 10110 Steel Putty
Mountain Tactical Tikka Recoil Lug
Aluminum bedding pillars (included with AllTerra stock)
SC Johnson Paste Wax (or equivalent release agent)
(2) Roughly 2" M6 all thread screws
(4) 10mm nuts and washers
5/16" Drill
Q-Tips and popsicle sticks
Super Glue
Acetone
Masking tape
Dremel
I tried my hand at bedding my rifle a few months back. It came out great with MarineTex but this video is everything I learned from my research over a few days condensed into one. I had good luck with playdoh in the areas I wanted to keep the epoxy out of. Thank you for making this. Wish I had seen it previously.
Man, you're a good teacher! Thank You for taking the time to show us how you bed a rifle.
Thanks particularly for the pillar length specs!! I could not find them anywhere so measured my factory stock. Good to watch your process and your thoughts about each step.
Thank. You you sir. I beaded other. But I going to beaded my Tika this week .thanks you did one of the best job to date. God bless you and your family
What I would do differently is JB weld the recoil lug to the action . Put tape on sides , bottom, and front of recoil lug and coat it with wax.
Every rifle I've bedded definitely made a huge difference in consistent accuracy
So glad I seen this video before I bedded my two tikkas! I have grayboe stocks that just came in for my 300 wsm and 7prc and I definitely need to bed them. I’ve watched every video at least twice and skipped over this one because of the tittle! I was under the impression it was on just pillars. So glad I watched the video! I took notes and now need supplies I wasn’t going to use since other videos had their way of doing it, but this way is much much more accurate and reassuring! Thanks for the video and new found confidence that I could bed my tikkas without issue!
Glad we could help! Hope your project was successful.
did you rebarrel to 7mm PRC? I'm wanting a Tikka in that caliber.
@@steveelder5306 I did. I pre ordered a tikka proof research carbon barrel 2 summers ago. Super easy to take the barrel off and threaded the pre-fit on. Hells canyon has the best magazine, if you decide to go with 7 prc. The 7 prc cartridges didn’t feed or fit from the stock tikka 7mm rem mag, magazine.
thanks for the information! I want a Tikka and I want it in the new 7!@@leonardogarcia2506
Did you shoot your rifle before and after bedding ? If so, What was the outcome ?
I wanted to let you know that thanks to your instructional video I did an excellent job on my rifle! Thank you!
Great to hear, congrats on a job well done!
@@allterraarms Thanks to your explanations and my manual skills, it is very much thanks to you that I finished the job on my rifle very well. I will always keep your teaching in mind and I saved this beautiful video.. very professional. Thank you very much again!!! I would offer you a dinner or lunch but unfortunately I am very far away in Italy...in fact I would propose myself as your employee if you want me...I am cheap and I like working in your sector!!!!
Congratulations for the video, very informative and clear! It can be seen that you are professionals, you work with professionalism and serenity... if I didn't live so far away I would have had you do the work for my CZ. However, thanks to your suggestions, I'm sure I can do it on my own too. Thanks for the explanation and clarity!
Great job!
Also... that giant photo in the background is a distraction.
Yep, I thought the same thing
Great video. Keep them coming!
i don't agree to torquing the 10 mm sockets, for a better bedding job no torque must be used.
A dry wall bit in the Dremel is much better to clean the bedding up. Your welcome 😁
Great stuff brother.👍👍👍
Does the stock Tikka T3x Lite come with pillars? What is the recommended torque spec on the action screws? Tikka manual says 45 or 62 in-lbs depending on if your stock is a plastic base vs metal base. 62 in-lbs sounds insanely high. I’ve heard people get best results between 35-40 in-lbs… after adjusting my trigger pull, I torqued my stock back on to roughly 37 in-lbs. Seems to be on secure and the magazine slides right in… not sure if I’m missing something.
I use Sno-Seal leather wax wnd J.B. Weld.for glass bedding.
Love the process, would be interested to hear your thoughts on torquing the action in during bedding versus using compression with elastic or other.
We have used compression with rubber tubing in the past. Using the action screws ensures that the bedding cures with the action as level as possible and that the screws will go right where they need to be. Also keep bedding material from getting into the action screw holes.
You rock with those nuts and studs...lol
Figured by that point in the video, folks would be ready for some comic relief.
Great job i have seen your the best i ever sèen🎉😮
You haven't seen many bedding videos then!😂😂😂
Hi, can you give me the pillar insert lengths in millimeters, please ? Awesome video by the way. Tank you.
Thanks.,.
Did you make the recoil lug a permanent part of the stock?
Yes, just like a factory Tikka stock, the recoil lug becomes permanently fixed.
33:58 металлические втулки оказались чуть длиннее, поэтому ствольная коробка вылезла вверх.
Thanks for the video! Was there any bedding compound left on the pillar surface where they contact the action? Seemed like it but I couldnt really tell. Should the pillar contact surface be cleaned or does this has little effect on the bedding process and/or accuracy?
There will be bedding compound on the pillar surface. It will be very thin where the action contacts them. Bedding a round action surface to a flat pillar top, you will want the compound to flow in and fill all but just where the action contacts the pillars.
Could you use the release compound to protect the edges of the stock from any overflow?
You could, but its not necessary on any areas that are accessible to be cleaned off before the compound is set.
what is 1964 drill pit? is it bigger than a hamburger but smaller than football field?
19/64th inch drill bit. About 7.5mm
👍🏻👍🏻
Is the white area on the stock foam for the core of the stock?
It’s not foam, the core is a dense machinable compound made with resin and 3M micro glass bubbles.
This guy us hilarious
You guys ship to Canada
The stock.... AG composites?
This is our own stock. Our design, we machine the molds, and do the carbon layups.
Aqui no Brasil nós não temos nada destes produtos pra trabalhar como armeiro temos que importar fica muito caro
Its not a 10mm nutt its an m6 nutt. In metric you dont name it after the toolgrip you name it after the threed..
You said NUTS.
🤣
Can you ask your camera guynto keep the lens on your hands, and parts, instead of continuously going back to your face? We need to see the activity - not your sweet mouth. Plus... he is making me seasick with the shaky-cam.
Ok, told him.
Tikka rifles shoot fine, but that recoil lug has to be the absolute worst in the firearms industry
LongRifles Inc, has a fix for the tikka recoil log
😂😂😂
i dont like how the recoil lug isn't part of the action...
Great video but damn that end result wasn’t pretty. I would be pissed if I was that customer
How to bed a tikka? WHY? #1 toss it in the trash and get a Remingtion700 start there. Like putting drag slicks on a Prius.

I had a 700 loaded up, hs precision stock , timbey trigger , free floated and bedded. Shot good but my tikkas are better. All tikkas you're throwing away I'm gonna need your trash then.
Tikka is a far better rifle than a 700, unless you go custom action.
Bohhh! La resina mi sembra versata con la cazzuola.
