Could bedding a synthetic or rubber stock help improve accuracy?

Soft synthetic and rubber stocks are almost impossible to bed and get them right. A good stuff synthetis stock will bed well, but not the cheap ones or the rubber ones. I would not even waste the time doing it. If you need better accuracy, it would be best to go with a different stock. Bedding works best in something that is stiff already. I have bedded a few cheap synthetic stocks, and gained a little, but not much. If your stock tends to be leaning to the right, and your taking material out of the stock for bedding, it will keep moving right on you.
