I have the version without any aluminum or pillars. REM 700 LA BDL 25-06.

After about 40 rounds the area between the trigger and bottom metal cutouts cracked. It was undoubtedly due to not having the stability of the aluminum bedding block. B&C repaired it and before I shot it again my smith bedded the action from tang to 1” past the lug. No complaints or issues sense. Went from just over MOA to around .8-.9.

I like the feel and balance. But be aware of you get a non bedding block version, I would bed it.
