[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1890030, member: 38048"] That's why almost every custom rifle is Piller bedded. Because they shoot worse. So all us custom builders are doing it wrong by using pillers. The reason you see where the pillers sit on the action is it's metal on metal. That will show up. The bedding is smooth and doesn't leave marks on the receiver. With out pillers your stock will compress and you can't keep a proper torque on the screws. Call any custom builder and ask if they Piller bed. Call McMillan and Manners and ask if you should use pillers. The answer is yes. Sure you can bed without pillers but why do half the job. Shep [/QUOTE]
