I am installing a new LW barrel on my model 12 action so I thought I would use one of the SSS barrel lugs for the job. The problem is that the SSS lug is taller and thicker than the standard Savage that was on before. I am installing this action in a Mcmillan stock, and wonder if I should mill off the required .050" from the bottom of the lug, or deepen the channel in the synthetic stock. I do plan on epoxy bedding the action at some point anyway, but carving inside of a $500.00 stock makes me nervous non the less. :-\
