It will have backlash, you can't make it go away, only reduce it. Adjust the leadscrew nuts and gibs to reduce any slop but still allow smooth movement and take light cuts. Column flex can be a problem with Taig mills. Also look for movement in the connectors between the steppers and the leadscrews, especially if using the stock Taig ones.
