This is what I have been looking for. There are thousands of Bergara rifles being talked about blowing out primers and this is what they need. There firing pin is way over sized.
The savages have so much back travel I have only found it necessary on one rifle. That particular rifle was being rechambered for a wildcat that had a thicker rim and needed the face pushed back almost .020. Now lightening the ejector spring I do recommend. Just grind a small amount off. Never cut the springs. You cant remove material in a fine enough increment.
The way 308W/6.5CM ammunition is manufactured is slightly too high pressure plus the firing pin hole is oversized causing primer material to flow into the firing pin hole causing a stoppage AR10/308 BCG; JP Enterprise Enhanced BCG not cheap but solved the problem with a firing pin/hole.
In some cases yes. Many only get turned back .002 and that is less then is necessary to modify head spacing. But I can do them without changing head spacing. I always ask my customer before I start cutting.
Had this man redo my bolt including fluting it. He did a really fantastic job. Bolt lift with my pinky now. Great job with nominal price.
Thanks David!

Nice work buddy
hello still waiting on my lift kit order its been over a week
Where did you order it? We typically ship within 3 business days. Postal system them is a muck right now.
Do you do this for the Ruger Precision? Have have the same cratering but know that it is due to a loose firing pin.
Yes he does.
I sure do. Have done several. Use my website please to contact me. Thanks.
Nice video man!
Thank you. No one else has done anything like it.
Do you take .001-.002 off the ejector after truing the bolt face? You don't want excessive extrusion

Doesn't shortening a spring make it stiffer?

Yes Hornady upped the PSI limit without changing the design of the case about a year after they first made it. Has caused issues ever since.
thanks.. If you skim the inside of the bolt and lugs aren't you changing headspace?
