NOS 1898 bolt body arrived. After cleaning, but before assembling it, I checked headspace with a Brit .303 GO gauge. I was unable to fully close the bolt using only the lightest pressure. However, I was able to close the bolt using a little more force when using a 30-40 new unfired brass casing. I checked for burrs on the bolt lug and face but didnt notice any. So is a bolt fitting (stoning of the lug) in order or is there another fix? Was hoping that a NOS bolt body would be interchangable.
Thanks, - milsurpshooter |
