The Pete’s Pillars Bedding Set provides a solid, repeatable foundation for properly bedding Ruger American bolt-action rifles. Built around the same proven pillar design that established Pete’s Pillars as a trusted name among gunsmiths and competitive shooters, this set delivers consistent action support without unnecessary complexity.
Pete’s Pillars pillars are intentionally left long and trimmed during installation, allowing the final fit to be set precisely for your rifle and stock. This approach promotes proper alignment and helps achieve a stress-free bedding interface when installed correctly.
Manufactured in the USA from plain 6061 aluminum, these pillars are available in Smooth or Profiled configurations. Profiled pillars feature deep exterior grooves that create a strong mechanical lock with bedding compound, while Smooth pillars offer a clean exterior for installers who prefer a traditional bedding approach. Both options are built to the same dimensional standards and long-term durability expectations.
