[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 755365, member: 48043"] I'm not getting into a fight about pillar bedding. I've worked a few rifles bedding over and this is by far not my first rodeo. Most of the time a simple float is enough. Pillars seem to have worked on my BDL with soft wood, though. I agree if you have huge gashes of bedded area missing you need to fix it, but I was referring to some really crappy stocks put out by win that NEVER should have hit the market. Marlin has done this lately with their xl7 and its tupperware. If you want to put a synthetic stock on a rifle, put one on it that actually works well in all conditions and doesn't get floppy when it is 100 degrees outside. P.S.-- I've never had a bad crown on one of my rifles. Treat your rifle like it cost more than $5 for cripes sakes, it isn't that hard to do. I've seen a few rifles with poor crowns in the gun shops, but I refuse to touch anything someone thought was their red-headed stepchild. [/QUOTE]
