    Question Case hardening a tikka recoil lug

    I am bedding my 300 Win Mag Tikka T3X and noticed that even the mild steel recoil lug has some surface damage from the 50ish rounds it has fired.

    anyone ever tried case hardening these recoil lugs in the garage with a torch and some charcoal? seems like it should work fine but interested in getting opinions... once its bedded in the glass it will be a biatch to change if something goes bad.
