I wondered about that too.
I recently swapped my Stevens short actions into one of the aftermarket
tactical stocks.
It seemed that I had to free-float the rear tang otherwise I couldn't get the
safety to slide forwards or back.
I'm not sure that free-floating the rear tang has as much to do with accuracy
than it does with functionality.
In my case, I just milled off enough to be able to slide my safety lever into
the "Safe" or "Fire" position without having to utter multiple swear-words in
the process.
