Yes, clearance is at the back and top of the lug. Full contact at the front i.e. needs to be square on to action slot. Check if there is movement between the barrel and stock when undoing the action screws, particularly the front one. A very small amount is usually acceptable but not anymore than that.

Sorry can't help you with this one on one as I live in the NI.
