Should I bed a Mcmillan fiberglass stock?

[elmerdeer]

I am receiving my new McMillan stock in a week, I spoke to McMillan and asked them if I should bed it and their answer was you should'nt have too.Now what are your guys thoughts on bedding the fiberglass stock and your results? It is a model 70 featherweight. Also what about putting in pillar posts on the stock as well? I am looking for repeatable accuracy so what is the best way to get it on this particular stock and what have been your experiences?
Thanks

First, put your action in and try it at the range.

If the results are less than you want, bed it.

Being anal, I always pillar and bed by stock/actions but that is just me. It cannot hurt if done properly.

Have it skim bedded at the least. Preferably pillar bedded.

They only say that because they don't want to admit that they don't make one size fits all stocks. Skin bed it at least for a good tight fit..... even the HS stocks with the aluminum block need it done.....

I have a McMillan on a 260 Rem sporter. My gunsmith recommended pillar bedding it. I did and it shoots great. YMMV
