What good is a trued recoil lug and nut if your action is not trued as well? Think about it..And how do they true a recoil lug anyway?
if it is flat then is nothing to true..So if your old one is flat then whats the difference in the two? Explain it to me...Forgot to mention,if your bolt face is not trues as well..then what..You have gained NOTHING..

Not sure what you are asking but I can gurantee you, the factory recoil lugs are not flat. I have blanchard ground about ten of them. It usally takes .004 on one side and .010 to .015 on the other side sans the anti-rotation nub. You can take a fine flat diamond hone and gently brush the face of the action and you will see how poor the surface quality is.

Do this to the nut also and the situation is vastly improved...but not trued. remember that any defects on two mating faces will distort axial alignment due to a lack of parallelism. Bedding the lug is another thing to consider.
