SageRat Shooter

Good day,
So, I just went to the range this last weekend to get my PD gun ready for action next weekend... About 6 Months ago my axis got a new stock on it and has now "compressed" around the action screws... It was shooting great for 10-15 rounds (all one big ragged hole) and then all of the sudden my POI shifted about 1-2" right.... Still grouping though... I've never had that problem with it since putting the CBI barrel on it.
So, I took it apart to see what was going on, and found that there is nothing to keep the action from moving laterally (except the rear action screw).
The question is: Has anyone else bedded the savage action (Glass not Pillar)? and if so, what did you bed? I'm stumped in regards to how to bed around the funky recoil lug...:der: Or is Pillar bedding my only option here?
Thanks,
