[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2027768, member: 115658"] Does Savage make these lug by some stamping process? If so, my guess is the lug was deformed when it was stamped out and installed instead of being tossed. Edit: Inadequate data to make assumption that recoil forces causes lug deformation. A photo of stock showing lug recess might indicate deformation of upper back edge if recoil force caused lug deformation. Lug deformation begins just below middle of lock nut where lug projection is at minimum and barrel lock nut would normally secure lug against barrel. Experience with Rem 700 recoil lugs shows that they can handle .416 Rem. I ( "I" message vs. "you" message) avoid making snap assumptions because they are usually incorrect and may damage reputations and cause personal animosity - just me talking.. [/QUOTE]
