[QUOTE="Wild_Bill, post: 171490, member: 4785"] [b]Recoil lug and tang[/b] Hi th reason with more tape under the lug is incase the bedding sinks a little over time or a foren object gets under the lug you won't have it touching. You say the tang is not bedded it should be done at the same time as the front off the action because devcon is fairly solid you can't make the action pull down at one end onto a solid surface while allowing the other end to find the exact level. Have a shot off it and then I would remove your trigger saaembly a d re skim bed the front off the action and the tang area. I would probably bo the barrel chanel first so you can space it up off the channel with tape so the barrel sits in the channel at the tip off the stock and the n place in the bedding compound you only need your action screws just start their threds and slowly settle the action to its correct hight then carefully tape down with 1 layer off thick 2" tape and use the back off a steel rule to slowly remove the excess compound. As for the overflow into the trigger and. mag cutouts you can use your dremel to machine it out when dry you realy don't require pluging it all up with modeling clay. Cheers Bill Australia [/QUOTE]
