Ordered a new stock for my custom Sako 30-338. The rifle shoots great, but I kinda banged the stock up when I tumbled down the hill and rather than re-finish, I figured I'd try the fiberglass route. Won't mention any names, but the maker has been known to frequent this forum. Now I wonder who that could be? Anyhow, can someone enlighten me on the theory behind pillar bedding and how it works in practice.
I had a gunsmith glass bed my wooden stock, then later he reworked the stock and bedded it again with the pillars. I didn't see any difference in accuracy. My question is, should I pillar bed or just glass the action?
