Hello guys - been lurking for a while. Taking in all the knowledge. Now I have a specific question. So my semi-custom rifle ordered in January finally arrived this week. Bolt action in 6.5PRC. Upon assembling the gun at my gun shop I realized they sent the wrong bolt. It will clear the bolt release, but then only gets halfway down the chamber before stopping. So either they sent the wrong bolt, prob .308, or the barrel that is stamped 6.5 PRC is actually something else. Highly likely they sent the wrong bolt. (They obviously didn't do a function test before shipping.) My question is, what would have happened if they had sent one slightly smaller. Say 6.5 Creed or 6 Creed. Would I have been able to seat that bolt and chamber a round? And if so, I imagine if i attempted to fire a round things wouldn't have gone so well.
Thanks for any info
Ron
