Gunsmithing BDM pillar height question

[Chad44]

I'm waiting on the PTG stealth m5 BDM. It'll be going into a factory remington walnut stock. (Hopefully after inletting it'll work) my question is on pillar length. Will they be the same length as they are with factory BDL hinge plate bottom metal? Or longer? Or sorter? Anyone have a front and rear measurement on the pillars? Rem 700 LA. Thanks

Make sure to use the same height as the badger bottom metal. This will dictate if the rifle will feed or not

What height is badger?

I know for a fact the LA and the SA are different but dont know off the top of my head. I know badger ord used to have the blue prints for the bottom metals on their webpage. But not sure if they still do.

Here are the measurements for the pillars from Badger: 1.03 & 0.68 for LA

Thanks. I got the stealth in the mail and wasn't aware that it came with premeasured pillars. Bonus!
