[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 336270, member: 11717"] Paul, What cal are your T-3's? I suspect the larger cals like the 300 WSM are more suspetable to recoil issues. I have read many good reports on the T-3's accuracy as well as the Sako. I've read a couple of not so good ones also. Unfortunately, mine is one of the latter. Thank for the link. I remember reading that thread. The slot in the bottom of my receiver sounds like the T-3 slot. However, there is no recoil lug anywhere in the stock, just plastic. Go figure??? I wonder if was an attempt to save on weight in the Finnlight? It's really hard to believe. I've been thinking about this and running with JE's suggestion, I could have a chunk of SS machined to fit in the slot and around the boss of the action screw hole. It would roughly be about 1" wide x 1" deep x 3/4" thick with a hole drilled through it for the action screw. I could have it bedded in the stock or attached to the reciever with screws or welding. I like the idea of attaching it to the reciever. One thing though, it doesn't leave a lot of room between the pillar/lug and the mag box, but I think it would work. Comments? [/QUOTE]
