Gun got proofed on Sunday... no cracking, no stretching... my buddy is pretty conservative, & he's sure if I keep the loads mild to mid as far as pressures, it'll shoot a long time
now needs to be pulled apart again, & the extractor fit to the barrel( & the extractor modified to fit the 30-30 cartridge ), & a couple parts made, as my buddy didn't do any more than needed to proof the action...
