[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 594352, member: 2693"] Hell no. And if the person that did the work on your 700 is good, you'll never see a difference in accuracy either so long as the well put together final product is done with attention to detail. Don't know what you mean by match lug but if it is not a straight taper sidewall that matches a factory 700 recoil lug then it will not float as well and could allow a "bend" in the action/barrel junction. This would not be an issue in the tapered "v" shaped aftermarket recoil lugs if they were screwed into from the bottom but they are not. The action is. The factory recoil lug is hardened steel. Many of the "oversized" recoil lugs are not and cut easily. Mike Walker designed that recoil lug with a straight wall for a reason. Just because some people are great shooters does not make them great gun smiths, especially if they do not build rifles. [/QUOTE]
