Tips for bedding Howa 1500 Action with Heavy barrel???

Hi all,

Just getting ready to bed my Howa 223 with match grade bedding (and stiffen the fore-end as well).
All of a sudden i'm nervous because i've been reading that they aren't so straight forward to get a good result!

Anyone got any tips?
Particularly how should i mask up the trigger end of the flat surfaced action? Seems to be a few slots & holes and if i mask them all i wont be leaving much surface area to contact bedding compound in that area?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
