[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 160112, member: 10"] Did you check the bolt lug locking recesses for any barrel set back. If the case was stuck that tighly, I would be suprised if there was not some degree of bolt lug setback in the receiver recesses or on the actual bolt lugs. I would check that out very closely, even though its shooting fine now, that does not mean the receiver has not been weakened........ You may also want to have the receiver ultrasounded to make sure there were no cracks in the receiver. most machine shops that work on engine rebuilds can do this for you. I have never needed to do this but have heard of others that should have had this done before shooting their rifles again:(!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
