Clear as mud,right? grin


No no no
I have worked the action, safety and dry fired it.
Slamming the bolt
Perfectly safe
Function check is gtg.

What I'm saying since it head spaces off the shoulder is
Chamber a dumped round with just a primer in it, on safe
Take it off safe squeeze trigger and snap the primer
That should confirm headspace is Gtg.
And the ogive from Sami spec factory ammo is gonna sit its given distance from the leade .
So if barrel is screwed in too tight into chamber
And factory ammo chambers overly tight , it would indicate a problem



I'm fugging confusing as fugg right now I geuss

I'm gonna go put 2 benjamins on this gun in a little bit after I feed the dogs.
Make a dummy primer round and touch it off in the parking lot
And chamber a live one on safe a couple times

I think I'm way over thinking this crazy
Trying to convince myself what we are both saying is correct.
And it is...
Gawd.... crazy laugh

Ok,take it easy,use the go/no go gauges. smile
