[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 1103211, member: 13285"] The lug needs to be glued firm into the stock so that it can not move. Floating the lug is no good. Raise the lug by placing some material under it. The factory stock is no good for bedding. The bedding will come loose in time. They are no good for anything once the recoil lug recess is damaged, it opens up and the lug can move about under recoil of a magnum. Its just a bad situation. You need a factory laminate stock or an after market stock made from a material that accepts bedding compound. Then glue the new steel recoil lug into the stock at the proper height. On the ones that I have done, I bedded action and the recoil lug together. The bedding material to glued the lug into place. Although I bed the action into the lug, I still keep the barrel totally free floating past this point although you can run some bedding up the barrel channel if you like. Here is one in the process of being bedded and prior to clean up. In this case the bedding stopped at the end of the action. [IMG]http://www.austargets.com/imgs/t3c.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
