My method is to leave the mag well in the wood and position the mag catch where it belongs in the mag well. Now position the barreled action upside down and put that tab/spring in position on the action with the action upside down. The tab/spring fits in the recess milled next to the bottom hole in the action. With the action upside down the tab/spring doesnt fall out. Next place the stock with the bottom metal onto the barreled action with it still upside down. Mine goes into place with very few cuss words and/or frustration. Need to make sure the tab/spring puts pressure on the mag catch and all is OUTSIDE of the magwell/bottom metal. Once everything is back together proper the mag will snap in and out with ease.
