All the bows I have ever built had the same bed angle. I scraped a riser last week due to getting the beds at different angles.

I have never seen anything like that. If it is that far off, you'd expect the limb to be way off at the tips

Yes and No.. On an ILF bow, you can adjust the angle with a turn of the bolt and change the tiller.  That being said, I always build mine the same, but if you wanted to adjust tiller, you could have just a hair difference between the two.
