[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 2262582, member: 74902"] Springtom, although Coop2564 doesn't use pillars. For you, I think having Boyds install the pillars would be a very good option for you. The steel pillars are small hollow tubes that are bedded in the stock where the action screws pass through before they screw into the action. This stops the action screws from compressing the bare wood that they would pass through otherwise and allows the action to be torqued tight to the stock without damaging the wood which, in turn causes the action to come loose in the stock. Boyds does a good job installing the pillars. I actually make my own pillars these days from lamp shade tubing of all things. But I think, for your first stock, having the pillars already installed would be the way to go. [/QUOTE]
