[QUOTE="hateCA, post: 1830802, member: 9157"] You also need to check to be sure the top of the bottom metal is not contacting the bottom of the receiver when torqued down. Upward pressure on the bottom of the action from the bottom metal is going to cause you issues. That bottom metal may be just fine where it is, every stock is a little different. Check clearance, feed, and mag lock-up. If you don't like the look pillar bedding will fix the issue. McMillan and Manners stocks are meant to be bedded. Devcon will release with just about any release agent or wax there is. If you want a simple and sure fire release agent use Brownells spray Acru-Release. Bedding can be messy and that stuff will flow where you least expect it. The spray release is the best bet to be sure you got full coverage. Bedding is a one shot deal if you are not sure or comfortable doing it pay someone who is knows what they are doing. This could save you lots of money and hard ache in the long run. [/QUOTE]
