Jim, I bed ALL my rifles, even the ones with the alloy bedding blocks. Darrell Holland proved to me that even skim bedding stocks so outfitted will gain in the accuracy department after proper bedding.
One advantage of proper bedding is that as the rifle heats up as they tend to do in a hot rat patch, your POI will not change due to thermal expansion. One shot to the next to the next will all be at the same POI; no "walking" the POI up as the barrel heats up. One season to the next; same POI, rain or sleet; same POI. Hot summer day, no change.
I prefer Brownells Accura-Glass Gel, but Marine-Tex and Devcon are also excellent bedding compounds. Read all you can about the subject before starting, and pay particular attention to the release agents used to separate the barreled action from the stock. Modeling clay is also your friend for bedding jobs to fill in areas like the trigger group mortise to avoid the compound from entering critical areas it's not wanted.
It's not rocket science, and once you've done a couple of jobs, you'll want to do all your pet rifles after seeing the benefit at the target.
