And then there were all of those sweaters, they were making wild guesses about how long the bullet was when it left the barrel. The North Texas shooter purchased 308 W ammo for a 25/06 chamber, that would be for a rifle he did not own. F. Guffey |

The center of the bolt face being .005 to .006 deep does account for part of the primer pooching out. I had three primers leak a while back and they did go a bit too easy when pressing them in. Each time left a little hole in the bolt face. I ordered a spring too. The gun smith i had brought it to before discounted the need for a spring as well as that the bolt face is concave. I did called about getting a bolt kit and firing pin spring. I don't think he wants any more work.

Why? He nailed it. The bolt face is concave. I called the gunsmith about the bolt face afterwards.
