What I just did for a new to me Savage Palma in 308.
- I cleaned the barrel.
- I undid the bolts holding the action to the stock and removed the action. I wanted to check to see if there was anything I should know about, contact on things where there should be none, debris, ect. Then I torqued the action into the stock to factory specs.
- Checked the rail against the barrel and saw it was uneven. So I bedded the rear of the rail with JP weld. Afterwards checked mounting and attached rail to action with properly set torque of screws.
- Placed my rings onto the rail, pushed forward and checked alignment. Cleaned, degreased and torqued lower rings to rail.
- Checked level of rifle and aligned scope into rings. Checked for proper eye relief, set top of rings onto lower and snugged them up little.
- Checked reticle against plumb bob 50 yards away to confirm true vertical. Torqued top of rings.
- Took out bolt, disassembled it, polished where needed to make it a little smoother, lubed and reassembled.
- Checked bolt for proper function.
- Tonight I will bore sight it.
Hope I didn't miss anything.
