I just purchased a featherweight thumbhole boyd stock for a savage. I want to glass bed and float the barrel, is there any preference on a glass bedding kit?

I use Brownell's Acraglas GEL because it is easy to work with. Marine Text is pretty popular but I just use the gel.

I have used Acraglass and Miles Gilbert Bedrock Glass Bedding, and prefer the bedrock. Easier to work with IMO

Just be sure and read the directions and use plenty of release agent, making sure it is coated well.

I use acraglass gel, but I hate the relase agaent that comes with the kit. I just use vaseline. Don't with the gel, I learned after a couple of times I takes more than you think.

I just hope you ordered the correct stock. I forget if you savage/stevens is a center feed or stagger

IMPORTANT: THE EASIEST WAY TO TELL WHAT ACTION YOU HAVE IS TO DISASSEMBLE YOUR GUN.

THE STAGGERED FEED ACTIONS HAVE THE STEEL MAGAZINE-WELL ATTACHED TO THE RECEIVER.

THE CENTERFEED ACTIONS HAVE THE MAGAZINE WELL THAT WILL STAY IN THE STOCK .

PLEASE VERIFY WHICH ACTION YOU HAVE PRIOR TO ORDERING
