Yeah, you're not going to get anything from Boyds in this case... It's a paper weight now if it was me... You could try to sand it down a bit and try to JB weld it, but I wouldn't trust it very long... Pillars are pretty much a requirement for the Boyds Pro Varmint as the action screws always compress after awhile... Hate to suggest this, but I'd order a new one... And perhaps not even a boyds... Take a look at the Bobby Hart LRT from Stocky stocks... It might cost you more than the PV, but I like the Bobby Hart much better (My bro has one on his 12FV). The comb is also higher, so you won't need a cheek riser most likely. They even have that stock model that has aluminum bedding blocks already installed... No Pillar job needed. https://www.stockysstocks.com/bobby-...nd-models.html


Edit: Apparently the aluminum block is not for the savage models,, but I still prefer it to the Boyds. Wish they made one in Lefty...

Just my .02,
