    Pillar bedding

    Guys can anyone recommend a gunsmith to pillar / glass bed my old Winchester 70? How much does this carry on cost nowadays?

    The old walnut stock has started to compress after years of me taking the rifle in and out, messing with other stocks etc. I probably have been overtightening it too. It has started needing to tighten it up the action screws after it starts shooting all over th eplace, and now the the action screws are getting too long to fit right. I put a shim under the bottom metal which brought everything right, but now its happening again. Rather than putting a bigger shim in, I am thinking it will need pillar bedding.

    I can glass bed the action, but I think it needs pillars, and thats probably out of my league.
