[QUOTE="Edd, post: 1162297, member: 30592"] You want opinions, here is mine. You don't want tape on the back of your recoil lug. The recoil lug on your BAT HR action is tapered, so you don't want tape on the sides of it. On actions that have straight lugs, I would want to tape at least one side of the lug. You want some tape on the bottom of the lug, I would use a layer .020" thick. The front of the recoil lug needs some tape too. You need enough clearance in front of the recoil lug for the barreled action to lay in the stock channel, with the barrel touching the stock and the back of the action tipped up, without having the recoil lug being a pry bar on the bedding. So the amount of clearance you have under your barrel and the length of the lug will determine how much clearance you need. It won't take much. [/QUOTE]
