[QUOTE="dwm, post: 1203752, member: 1136"] I have a dumb question, why did you remove the steel pillars that were already in that stock? I have bedded several factory Savage wood stocks with those steel pillars in them and they shoot just fine. Isn't the goal to stabilize the recoil lug contact with the stock and also stabilize the action from side to side movement. Those small steel pillars are not going to compress and once you bed the recoil lug and front and rear of the action you should be good shouldn't you? The action screws are steel and so are those pillars, so thermal expansion and contraction between them should be very similar shouldn't it? [/QUOTE]
