Barrel bedding

Has anyone used Indian Head gasket material for bedding?  I've seen it in a few videos and I am wondering what you guys think.

The original quality formula, a hard setting, economical sealant. Seals all common gasketing materials in low temperature and low pressure applications. Temperature range -65°F to 350°F (-54°C to 177°C); resists diesel fuels and most shop fluids.

Curious as to how much good it would actually do, especially in high RoF situations.

Never even heard of that before, and there's no way I'd use a gasket material for that job.  Loc-Tite 609 is the only thing I've ever reliably heard of.  Loc-Tite 609.  Not "red loc-tite" or anything like that.  609.

^^^^^THIS! No way should a gasket material be used, the idea is to remove any movement, gasket material will have some flex. 609, never had an issue taking the barrel back off with this stuff.

This stuff is the sh!t. Even comes in tactical black.

 

 

I'm kidding, do not use Flex Seal on your rifle. Unless you just....don't want it to leak .....I guess. 

All BS aside, 609 is where it's at. You can find it cheap online.
