I've been running the standard Axis recoil lug without issue on my 308 build. I permanently bedded it with Devcon into the ProTac Stock, so that it is not much of a factor anymore. I am maintaining consistent sub half MOA accuracy and with 175gr SMK's put an 8 for 8 shot group at 890yds on a 17in diamond plate. I would be interested to see if the cost of doing the T&T to remove the material and use a standard lug would be that much more beneficial!
