Boyds stock and plastic front insert

So this memorial weekend I spent my time bedding a new boyds Varmint stock for my Savage Axis .308. What a pain, the bedding went fine, but when I was going to put action back in stock, the plastic insert for the stock stripped out, where it was to have a lip to stop the bolt from going too far in action, so with some head banging and a nice employee at a ace store, i ended up with steel pillars now, and a ugly screw but the stock is solid now, Boyds needs to figure out this problem [IMG]308 hack job[/IMG]

Do you have the old setup with the two plastic parts in front of the magwell (I call them a latch plate and escutcheon) or the new one with the single plastic piece? I don't like the new design at all. Based on descriptions of SSS's magazine latch and front pillar, it seems like a similar setup, but Boyd's is inferior in every way and inferior to the previous setup.
