accu stock question

[david12601]

okay I have picked up a couple of accu stocks and accu lugs to convert some of my non accu stock models...

on all the non accustock we all were instructed to float the tang

on every one of the accu stocks that I picked up have an slight indentation where the tang makes contact with the tang

so I called savage the guy I spoke to had nothing for me so I politely asked him to talk to one of the gunsmiths about this question to get some clarification
he came back on the phone about 3 minutes later and said some float and some don't

I am going to try it both ways will have to use a shim to get it to float ….we shall see


anybody here have any thoughts to float or not to float that is the question

Most of us float the tang.

it is impossible to float in an accustock.....that is why I called savage.....when you take off an accustock you will see an imprint on the tang area of the stock.....this is with me trying 4 different rifles in each of the stocks ……...going to try them and see what happens
