[QUOTE="trueblue, post: 275281, member: 10654"] I understand your explaination of surface area and exerted pressure on that area, but do you not assume that a .750 bolt has larger (thicker) lugs than a .700 bolt. I don't know if that is true, and if so , if you still use a 1.350 dia. receiver, how are you gaining anything? Why is it that BAT Model M action can use a .717 bolt on the 408 Chey-Tac case, is it due to the receiver being 1.450, and not related so much to the diameter of the bolt ? Also, would you concider a 338 Lapua a safer build on a custom action ,like Phoenix , with a .700 bolt than on a standard Rem action ? [/QUOTE]
