Proper version below. One of the McMillans invented stock pillars. Believe it was Gale. In any event, pillars were never intended to be used in place of epoxy bedding. NEVER. They were simply used to keep from crushing a stock. The rifle shot 100% better after bedding (tight recoil lug). BTW, Kimber pillars are screwed in. Every one of my rifles (off the rack or not) is bedded like the last pic. I've "fixed" many that wouldn't shoot using this method and also shortening front base screw. I don't have anything but sporters (25 or so) and many light ones (none over 8lbs). "System" just plain works. Return the rifle if you're not comfortable working on it. [/QUOTE]
