Thanks Brad,I really appreciate this. I have a couple of questions please.

What do you use to remove the paint on release agent from the stock? Is it hard to get off? I can see using it sparingly on the outside if it is hard to remove while I might use a lot more just in case if it is easy to remove.

Do you add tape or anything to the bottom of the recoil lug,or is it not necessary since you are tightening the action farmer tight?

I think I see that you are painting with release agent and taping the mag box area?
