I am sure glad you brought up free floating the tang, this is something I have been meaning to discuss, I bed all my savages 6 of them and one Rem 700, most of my attention is to the recoil lug if you have movement there you will have movement elsewhere, but I do not get the idea of FF the tang, surely if things are tight in front then what can the tang area have anything to do with it, if you were to glue the action into the stock you are guaranteed no movement so shot to shot will be the same that is the whole idea, so what does the tang have to do with anything other then a Rem 700 where there is a pillar to support the action at the tang, I don't get it.

Can someone explain this?
