[QUOTE="Phil3, post: 625996, member: 17575"] Hi, I have a Bell & Carlson Tactical Medalist stock (aluminum bedding block) that really surprised me. With the action dropped in and rear tang against stock material, the recoil lug does not even touch the bedding block! There is about a 1/16" gap. I am not sure where recoil forces are being transferred, but it sure isn't through the lug. ??? Even the front action hole was forward of the bedding block hole enough to barely permit screw thread engagement. Is this normal? Should I expect to have to modify the stock just so the recoil lug contacts the bedding block? I am not sure if the stock is just made wrong, or if its really normal to have to correct such a large error. Phil [/QUOTE]
