I dont have one in the safe to look at and probably never will but I understand it uses 9 smaller lugs. Can the lugs be lapped to full contact? If all of them could be lapped to anything close to 75% would it actually give a bigger surface area than a typical two lug set up?

Hunt hard, kill clean, waste nothing and offer no apologies.
