[QUOTE="Roughrice, post: 2406826, member: 118657"] Yes...It is more common on a budget rifle due to mass production and less attention to detail. It doesn't necessarily mean it won't shoot well. I'd do what eklarsen said and go shoot it. It'll wear in time and smooth out. I've used JB's (blue worded) lapping compound to lap in the lugs on a few rifles before which smooths out the rough machining quicker. [/QUOTE]
