If the bolts snug down securely - I'm just debating in my head if adding pillars is worth it or not in this case or would a simple bed job be enough.

Keep in mind this is a $600 gun and I'm looking for simply MOA (or close to MOA) performance - not a tack driver or LR rifle.

This rifle will be the bush gun used in areas where shots will be 50-150 yards.
Of course it’s always fun to tinker and tweak max accuracy potential out of any rifle,but for a dedicated bush gun from 50-150y I’m pretty confident I could strap a barreled action on to a hockey stick with duct tape and hit minute of deer heart at that range,haha 😜
