[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2715025, member: 26077"] I don't pillar bed stocks because I find Devcon Bedding them, and using Devon pillars works far better than any pillar jobs I have seen. However, if they are going to put in Pillars, they need to ensure the pillar is shaped properly so that it makes full contact to the receiver. A flat top pillar mating to a round receiver is very likely to cause all kinds of harmonics issues, so I am not surprised you have found they work better with a skim coat on them. Also, if you have Devconed the action you need not worry about compressing when tightening. Devon takes a whole wack of pressure and does not compress. With Devcon pillars also installed, or not, I defy you to compress anything without twisting the action screws off. GREL - keep working on it, you will get it down pat with practice👏, big step up from the first one. [/QUOTE]
