[QUOTE="BRrooster, post: 743423, member: 15499"] I may have a bit of a problem. I have my Rem 700SPS stainless 7-08, stripped down to do some trigger adj, and closing the bolt , I noticed some play in the bolt position. With the bolt closed, there is play forward and back towards the chamber. I can actually get a measurement of .020 with an old feeler style gauge, between the forward part of the bolt handle and the bolt handle slot in the action. With a dummie cartridge chambered there is no play. This isnt normal is it? I have only had the rifle for a couple of months and not shot more than 50 reloads thru it. The brass has been used maybe 3 times, and not with overly hot loads. thanks bruce [/QUOTE]
