[QUOTE="Rimfire, post: 716997, member: 8839"] Your .532 face can be opened put it is a PITA, by the time you get to .585 the extrctor cut is not removed all the way and has to be dealt with which takes extra work. I would sell it and get a PTG. You can order a bolt to fit or have the action reamed. I would send the action to Ger-Tan and have it reamed, The standard reamer is .705" then you can order a one piece bolt at .702- .703 tight fit or what ever clearance you want. Talk to Greg order the bolt and send him the bolt and action he will ream it and check the fit / once over. Ramshot is showing to be fairly stable. So far no major problems. This rifle likes it and at 2800 FPS with a 300 SMK in the mid 3's there is no need to touch it. I have a couple of targets 2" or slightly under at 500. It just shoots The rifle almost never gets shot on paper or a bench, it spends it time on steel targets and culling deer and works great for both:) [/QUOTE]
