[QUOTE="Bruce Treloar, post: 2391980, member: 104002"] Do bed the recoil lug for better accuracy. The action will move back and forth during firing, clearance is necessary in the front , bottom and sides but not at the rear. Apply a single layer of tape on the surfaces that need clearance ie the front, sides and bottom but not the rear. Any epoxy resin with a run free viscoty like 1/2" thick, not drooping, when on a vertical surface. Don't forget to use a wax release agent on all surfaces including the tape and front action screw thread etc. Assemble the rifle allowing the epoxy to cure. A complete bedding job including the recoil lug, all done at the same time will give better results. Good luck [/QUOTE]
