[QUOTE="Ldwillie, post: 771538, member: 61806"] Related shimming question for a Savage 11: Best my groups have been are about 1.5 inch at 100yds with 100g Speer Soft Point Boat tails. I have not checked the stock for any contact points yet but I have noticed that the dollar bill test seems a little snug to me. My question is about weather to sand the stock AND shim the front pillar or just do one. Another question with shimming, I have seen videos of people putting the shims just in front of the aluminum pillar but wouldn't it be better to find/make a thin washer that could just go right on the pillar/screw? It seems like it would be more solid metal on metal then having the shims be between metal and plastic stock... Thoughts?:) [/QUOTE]
