    Pillar Bedding


    Do you put two pillars in the stock or one? You have to "butcher" the rear one to allow the trigger sear to clear, so is it worth it? I just a stock and only did one.
    This is on a Boyd's varmint stock. What are your thoughts?

    I am shooting 2 Boyd's stock, one is an At-One Thumbhole the other is a Spikecamp both chambered in 223Rem.. Both have been glass bedded and neither have pillars. Both are also capable of holding under 1/2MOA out to 300yds.

    Yes the rear pillar needs to be relieved to provide clearance for the sear. Also if the rifle used a DBM it doesn't leave a lot of material around the rear action screw hole to be removed to place that pillar.

    I did pillars and bedding on a Boyd's Pro Varmint stock for my Axis. Didn't need much in the way of clearance but the forward mag latch took a bit of modifying to fit right.
