Fseaman, I definitely understand the way a recoil lug works, but your explanation is really well put. It just seemed odd to me that they would use a different recoil lug arrangement on a wood vs synthetic stock (the screw post vs the slot). Looking at it for the first time, it almost seemed like a piece was missing. From the way the receiver slot is cut, I expected to see a corresponding lug on the stock, like you would on a Tikka.

But, apparently they don't think it's needed. Very interesting.
