I just bought a remington 700 vls (laminate stock) the barrel fits tight in the channel, sides and bottom. This is a used rifle and previous owner put this stock on without pillars or bedding, I would at like to put pillars in for now but curious about free floating. I have heard remington does not float their barrels. This is my first remington and I want it to be right. Thanks to you all.

Just me, but I would install pillars and bed the action. Get a large socket and sandpaper and open the barrel channel ( easy to do go slowly trying fit often). Float that barrel.
I've done other rifles that way when I put boyds stock on them, just wasn't sure about the remington. I don't know if will help but probably won't hurt it.
