[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 2195909, member: 101859"] Lapping is for matting parts that are all ready fitted well. It comes after the grinding process in the steps of fine fitting parts. Lapping lugs should be to remove tenths not thousandths. Theres issues related to lapping so you want to keep it to a minimum. I would stay away from diamond. Its very hard to prevent it from imbedding and continuing to lap long after you dont want it to. You should never run an action without grease on the lugs, thats asking for a gall. 600-800 silicone carbide is a good choice. [/QUOTE]
