I also had one of my .45 Elites (Synthetic)bedded this year to the front of the recoil lug pocket for action support/immobility and left the front free floated.LarryBud said:Might I suggest bedding from the rear tang to about 3" in front of the lug. I've done this to one Elite and one Extreme. Both are wonderful shooters.
It's groups dropped dramatically and is now the most accurate gun I own with consistent groups of 1.3"@200yds off bags in calm wind.
The gun not only shoots great at long range, it' also points and swings responsively with it's tapered barrel. In fact this year I shot a deer after it walked in down wind of me at 50yds withpout me seeing it until it turned and ran from me full bore leaving me with only a view of a tail, neck and head . The gun followed my instinct and put the 200SST into the back of its neck and the deer fell right there. 75 yds, Bullet xploded in the neck/spine without an exit. Couldn't have made that shot with less accuracy or pointability, so IMHO this is probably the best "balanced" MZ ever produced.
I had 2 of these and sold one of them this year and second guess myself selling it, as they are not exactly easily come by....
