[QUOTE="5.56×250, post: 1679097, member: 110162"] I would pillar bed it regardless, just so you can properly torque the action screws. I just did one of boyds thumbhole stocks and after the pillar bedding I relieved the wood in the action area and did a glass bed job on it too. I dont have any issues with coming out of the stock to work the bolt like frogforaday had, but the hole is pretty generous on that particular stock. I admit, I dont do much speed shooting with a bolt gun anyway, but working the bolt on that gun happens just as naturally as a standard grip for me. I saw the same thread on the stock breakage, but I thought the OP on that thread was shooting a big magnum . Since the first move I would recommend would be a pillar bed job, that problem would be moot , it you went that route. Boyd's also has premade stocks that are deeply discounted, so if they happen to have one to fit your browning, you can save enough to put towards ammo, some new glass, etc. I think the "at once " stocks are less than 100 bucks before shipping. .
