[QUOTE="Darryle, post: 2930952, member: 109917"] I have a Browning X-Bolt 6.5 PRC and I purchased a X-Bolt Pro stock. I am scabbing together a rifle using the BA and the Pro stock. The stock was for heavy sporter barrel channel and this 6.5 is a standard sporter. I filled and fit the contour using an epoxy snytactic foam. I removed the factory bedding forward of the action to accomplish that. This added less than 6 grams to the original weight. Now that I have that completed, I removed the rest of the factory bedding and prepped the stock for epoxy bedding using Marine Tex. Blatantly stole this pick from [USER=123918]@David_h[/USER] to show the rear action screw hole is a 1/3 cutaway for the magazine clearance. [ATTACH=full]504604[/ATTACH] I have some custom made small diameter pillars, my question is, do I machine the clearance prior to installation or cut them away afterwards? My original plan was to bed the action, then install pillars front and rear. Thanks Darryle [/QUOTE]
