[QUOTE="jarnold37, post: 1889075, member: 29241"] It seems that contact at the back of the lug is very important. If there is clearance between the lug and the stock at back of lug when cartridge is fired there will be very little to hold action from sliding backwards. The action screws are holding at a 90 degree from the action from recoil. The action screws need to have clearance around them so very little support. I used to leave clearance on bottom, sides and front but now I just leave clearance on the bottom. With clearance in front of lug at ignition when lug trys to recoil backwards the remaining energy applied to the lug will let action and lug spring forward because of the clearance in front of lug. It takes very little movement to start wallowing bedding even if very little. The worse it gets the worse it gets. Just a thought to ponder [/QUOTE]
