The Score-high drilling fixture is worth renting (or owning if you'll bed a lot of 700's), otherwise, be sure to drill the pillar holes such you can shim the action to square it and hold it centered in the inlet as the pillars are setting. I like to use tape shims in the barrel channel to suspend the action when setting the pillars, then use shims to set the action bedding above the pillars, and THEN open the barrel channel and use layer on layer of tape to a uniform barrel free float.
