I have not pulled it apart yet but I am 99.9% certain that it has the V-Block bedding system that was once reserved for the Varmint. (It shows the V-Block in the parts diagram) It shoots like it does: BELOM fmj @ 3/4" at 100 yards and my Nosler/AA1680 handloads at half MOA. Superb workmanship.~Riuma
Not to hijack - Have you had a chance to try out a CZ Varmint, which comes kitted with a kevlar/fiberglass stock? The stock was originally made by HS Precision and is now made by B&C. For me not only was it a much more ergonomic stock, but also now bullet proof in the field. It comes with the V-block, but even this can be improved with a bedding job.
