Pillar Bedding Question For Jason
Hey Jason,
I see you are making, or have put together, a pillar bedding kit for Tikkas.
I just got done drilling for, installing, and bedding pillars in the 5th T3 I've bedded. As usual, I left the pillars .010″ long so the bottom metal is contacting the pillars, and not the stock…for the most part. ;D
On the kit you are making, you say the pillars are the exact fit. Are they made so they come out the bottom of the stock exactly the same elevation as the stock, or are they a tad longer?
I guess if they are a touch longer (like how I cut mine), they would squeeze that little bit into the “plastic” bottom metal.
I spent about an hour cutting mine, and measuring with calipers…and re-cutting, to get an exact fit. A set that you only have to shave off .010″-.020″ would be a big timesaver.
I guess I better look into yours. 😉
