[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1189259, member: 24284"] No more than GO + .002, I like GO + .001 even better! Much depends on the ammo that will be used. If the rifle will be used with off-the-shelf factory ammo, I'll use Go to the middle of the tolerence. .30/06 class has .006" from GO to NO-GO, so I like GO +.003", but no more than that. .308 class has .004" between GO and NO-GO, I like GO + .002 in that. Weatherbys use a 'tighter' tolerence on their belted mags, I use the same as they do. Factory Creedmore ammo made by Hornaday or Win. have both been compatable with minimum headspaced chambers,,,, s far...Handloaded ammo can be made to 'fit' the tight headspaced chamber/barrel, factory made ammo is what it is. Most factory made ammo will fit in a minimum headspaced chamber, but I've met up with a few that won't. If a customer who'll use only factory ammo wants a 'tighter' headspaced chamber, I will accomodate that with the factory ammo on hand that he plans on using. [/QUOTE]
