[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 2103350, member: 93138"] I'm fairly sure that the 1500 Mini is an exception, no idea if it is the only one. In my mind the perfect recoil lug is tapered on the sides AND on the front face [I]below[/I] the barrel register OD. Then no tape needed, forms a wedge fit, yet releases from the stock w/o destroying the fit. That is why I use the tape, to allow the action to be R&R'd w/o damaging the bedding. If the action is never, ever going to come out of the stock, then you can run with no tape. At the point I wouldn't bother with release agent either. If it is going to come out then tape and release agent are required unless the plan is to re-bed it every fifth to seventh removal. (I'm basing that interval on roughly how often I've read of M1A's needing to be re-bedded because removing them from the stock does wear on the bedding.) [/QUOTE]
