Bedding Pillars - supplier ?

[JEC]

Anybody in Canada stock aluminum pillars...need to fit action with 1.35" diameter.?

I would imagine Alberta Tactical Rifle Supply (ATRS) would have what you're looking for.

Thanks guys--- I have the Brownells catalogue...just like to spend my Canadian dollars closer to home.

don't mean to derail this thread... what's the best way (let's pretend one does not have a mill) to shorten the aluminum pillars to fit?

Good file with a mitre block to keep you square.

Lathes do a good job too

File is probably going to be key...my pillars are already installed and I'm thinking of changing bottom metals which requrie them shortened...

Jim - if you're looking at getting a pillar job done - ship your rilfe to Robertson.
The finished job is prestine and worth every penny.
If you want aluminum pillars - a fellow in Red Deer has everything you need.
Let me know

Thanks AL ...the stock is one of Robertsons ...sent to me unfinished (no bolt inlet/no pillars/no epoxy bedding/no sling studs/recoil pad not attached)...just before the locks went on the door of the business. Robertsons is closed at present. So, I need to start assembling the parts that were not installed.

You can also make your own. Thick wall aluminum tubing will work, as will threaded lamp ferrules if you are doing it on the cheap. - dan
