Has anyone had any experience with this?
I read about this years and years ago.
first free float the barrel
Second you find the natural vibration null point on your barrel.
Then insert 2 wooden dowels in the stock to lift the barrel at this point.
I had a Zastava M70 come with this dowel bedding, the gun was very accurate.
If anyone can enlighten on this subject please respond.

It all depends on the rifle. I have had factory rifles that shoot quite well with a pressure point, sometimes with wood, it can get wet and swell, and throw off your shots. I always aim for free floating barrels as I have experienced the pressure point shenanigans years back. It is quite uncommon that the rifle won’t shoot the same or better free floated as it does with the pressure point, but each setup is individual. The nice thing is, it’s easy enough to add it back in if needed with epoxy or bedding, etc. a good wrap of tape is a good temporary pressure point to try it out.
Yes I gained only 1/4" on my groups, but 1/4" is fair. the thing about pillar bedding is if it doesn't work out, remove the pillars, and your back to free floating.
Life is simply experimentation, and learning.

If it is a wooden stocked thin barreled hunting rifle you risk the point of aim changing with every humidity and weather change. How much I don't know.

Even with a synthetic stock, if you have a pressure point, the point of impact can change with temperature.
