Have any of you ever used Devcon 62345 Plastic Steel Epoxy Pillar and Bedding Compound? How does it compare to the putty? It costs about $6 and looks to be about as much as needed for 1 gun.

Never used it (like the 10110), tried to look it up but ITW provides very limited info from what I could find, unlike the 10110 data sheet which gives strengths, shrinkage, elasticity, etc.

FWIW, the Plastic Steel Epoxy is categorized as an adhesive, while the 10110 putty is classified as a metal repair epoxy. ITW must have a reason for doing so, but I have no clue as to why the differentiation.

My guess is it would be fine, but have no idea as to its viscosity (I like the putty because I can take my time and it doesn't flow off the vertical surfaces).

I too like Devcon 10110 for all bedding work.

I also prefer Marine Tex..and for a paint coat only on bedding or jobs where a more thin coat is in order I like the old Brownells red box liquid glass..for bedding a the recoil lug or tang the Brownells green box gel is still a good product..Depends on the job as to what I use..For instance on a Savage 99 forend and butt stock, I use a thinned or Brownells red box of clear liquid glass painted on with a brush then heated with a hair dryer and set in the wood to cure...the result is a glassed rifle that looks like its finished inside like it looks on the outside and not a bubble or flaw, and the wood looks just finished high gloss, Have had a lot of nice comments on that process..

I have used Devcon, mostly on plastic stocks.Not sure of the number, but its what BRownells sells.
