[QUOTE="relabbe, post: 210626, member: 5570"] As suggested I bought a go gauge and recieved it two days ago. First, I took the extractor and fire pin of the blolt, then I put the go gauge in the chamber and push the bolt on it. I couldn't close the bolt. Remember that I told you that I could put in some loaded factory ammunition in the chamber and close the bolt. Some were rubbing but they all fit in. When I made the order to Brownell I also ordered some lapping coumpound. I then decided to lap the locking lugs of my bolt. I lapped for 3 of 4 sequences and trying the go gauge between each and suddenly the go gauge went in. I then put a 2 thousand of an inch shim on the back of the go gauge and try it again. I could not close the bolt on it. I quess, I still have a tight chamber. Now I have to go to the range and fire that baby. Thanks for your support guys, [/QUOTE]
