I don't use tape on the lug, taping only places where I don't want bedding material to flow into. I carefully measure the lug and file where necessary so that the lug isn't wider or fatter at the bottom locking the receiver into the bedding so that the action can be removed from the stock later if need be. I use wax for release agent as it doesn't add a thick film on the receiver making it and the lug larger than the actual dimensions of the receiver and lug creating a loose fit when the release agent is washed/cleaned away like so many of the release agents that come with bedding kits do.
