There is an issue with stamped recoil lugs not being flat if that is what your asking. Most people purchase a precision ground one.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
In addition to not being flat stated by Robinhood the thickness may vary side to side and top to bottom. The thickness variance often is the cause of barrel action misalignment in a combination with poor barrel/action thread fit.
This misalignment was often blamed on mis-drilled scope base mounting holes. More often than not replacement of a stamped lug with a ground one will remedy most of the misalignment between scope & bore.

It always helps to clean any proud metal off the face of the action and the recoil lug when you are installing a new recoil lug to your savage.Originally Posted by mnbogboy2
A good while back sharpshooter posted a picture of a process at savage. It showed what I think to be the reason for the proud metal at the barrel action junction where the barrelled action was being straightened with a press at that joint. If you look close to enough actions you will see the flat spots from what I believe to be that process. I wish Fred would repost that.

I like to see that video too. I've always thought that the tooth pattern was knurling of some kind to straighten and work harden the face of the action.
Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.
I don't know if I have ever seen a tooth pattern. Do you have a picture?
