weatherby help please

I have a new hs presision stock for my mark V and have a bedding guestion. I have only bedded rem. 700 actions before. When it comes to the recoil lug, I asume that I should put a couple layers of tape on the front and sides, but what about the bottom of the lug? Should it set firmly on the bedding or should it be taped also? Thanks for any help or advice. I realy dont want to screw this up!

The front and sides are optional but the bottom must rest solid on the bottom. If it's not supported the action will be under huge stress when tightened up.

Agree - no tape on the bottom of a Weatherby recoil lug!
