The lug gets battered alright. Some bend. Or the damm things indent themselves right into the tupperware. Either way, they increase what is an already sloppy tolerance and most likely create uneven pressure.

Now tell me, how does a man of your supposed vast rifle knowledge not find this a detriment to the accuracy of the rifle?
