[QUOTE="Oak_Leaf, post: 2994145, member: 128477"] Okay. On recoil lug, I bed the back and sides only. The bottom of lug gets a smidge of relief by placing a layer of tape on it before bedding. Front of lug gets no bedding. If it were mine, Id dremel some of bedding away from entire bottom of lug and do a quick retest rifle before sending it in or rebarreling. There was discussion over on AS about this and someone had brought up the possibility that the bottom of recoil lug touching bedding could potentially alter harmonics. I just know the general consensus was to provide relief on bottom of lug. [/QUOTE]
