[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 2253868, member: 75779"] The extra space is in front of the lug which is inconsequential. Most people tape the front/sides of the lug when bedding, so it isn't an issue. Getting an aftermarket lug ensures its precisely made and flat. Adding thickness... to a point... doesn't hurt anything. It would be interesting to see if: adding a thin layer of clay to the backside of the lug Putting the action in the stock Torque the action/stock screws Remove the action Now see if the lug is making full contact. My guess is there's space and it's not making full contact... which is not ideal for accuracy. But that might be a different conversation then your original question. [/QUOTE]
