[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1739439, member: 2736"] If the action screw is in contact with the pillar or the bedding block, It is acting like the recoil lug and Yes this will cause problems. From your description, all you need to do is drill or ream it out for clearance. The other solution is to bed the bedding block to center the action over the action screws and improve the contact between the lug and the block. I make it a point to bed all embeds to get the best fit and 100% contact and relieve the action screws so they can do their only job. (Apply tension without any side load). Embeds are very good, but they don't/can't perfectly fit every action, but they make a great foundation for bedding. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
