[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1654209, member: 24284"] Installing pillars is to negate compression of wood/laminated stocks, and to induce stress free, repeatable surface to torque to, when they are properly installed. The action screws should never come in contact with the inside of the pillars. Proper support of the recoil lug, with glass (Marine-Tex is my preferred) , a solid bed for the front receiver ring and rear tang (or where ever the rear action screw goes) in a stress free manner will stand-up to the harshest recoiling caliber rifles. Action screws should never touch the inside of the holes they pass through to secure the action to the stock. As a side note, most of the factory and low cost laminates are made of some pretty trashy wood. [/QUOTE]
