[QUOTE="nso123, post: 5278120, member: 2508"] My understanding on this is that you do not necessarily need a tight slip fit on the lug. In the case of a Savage, it’s more important that the barrel nut and the lug are parallel to the action face when tightened. There is some thought that too tight of a fit between the lug and tenon can result in a pressure point. So, I would probably consider opening the lug up myself. [/QUOTE]
