[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2054271, member: 68758"] Correct way to do this is a piloted counterbore- and it will run true enough by hand in a drill (due to the pilot) for good results. Select a snug-fitting pilot to match the size of the holes for the action screws, and the counterbore slightly oversize of the pillar OD to allow room for epoxy. Best to drill most of the way through from the top, then flip the stock over and finish from the bottom to avoid splitting the bottom wood/fiberglass when running all the way through from the top.
