[QUOTE="Rflshootr, post: 2889338, member: 10284"] I don't like the tenon touching the inner face. I true the face of the receiver, then turn the tenon .005 less in length. You loose .002-.003 in thread crush and still have a tiny amount of clearance. I also skim the face of the recoil lug just enough to square it up on the mill. EDITED: I just read a post from Ggmac on Accurate Shooter. Here is what he had to say... "Over 10 yr span , testing about a dozen different 98s , all but one threw fliers . After relieving either contact , the fliers stopped . Testing was done in a fixed machine rest and actually retested a couple by making both contact again and the fliers came back . This was just an observation, it was real testing over a decade or more . Granted , setting a barrel to contact both shoulders and test firing for function, then using it for hunting, may never show a flier ." [/QUOTE]
