Removing epoxied pillars and DBM systems?
So I've got a MCS-T2. I had Manners install the pillars for me using the factory bottom metal, I think they use marine-tex for the job.
Well, I'm thinking about installing a DBM system from CDI, which means new inletting and such. What is the best way to go about removing the pillars that are already installed?
The gun is currently a heavy barreled 20" .308. Long term I'm looking at switching calibers to 6.5 Creedmoor with a medium-heavy palma contour, but that will be quite a ways away.
Would the 6.5 CM work well in the AW magazines, or would it be better to stick to the internal mag the gun currently uses?
Purpose of the gun is primarily target shooting, light hunting duty, and potential future use in some of those sniper-adventure competitions.

Leave the pillars in there!
The CDI bottom metal will likely need the pillars shortened, but you can just do that while you are milling the stock for the CDI bottom metal.
End mills really don't much care if you are going through aluminum, epoxy or foam.
They cut it all...

Have you called CDI? I believe for about $60 they will do the inlet for you. They will also be able to tell you whether the pillars are a problem.
