[QUOTE="7stw, post: 593969, member: 22854"] IMHO, it is "acceptable " to have some play on a empty chamber, but NOT when there is a round in the chamber. The .300 win. Mag headspaces on the belt. With a round in the chamber the play you are experiencing should be quite less. I could be wrong on the dimension, but most say that with a round in the chamber, and apiece of scotch tape on the butt end of the brass, it should be a TIGHT closing of the bolt at that point. Again when in doubt, check with your "smith " to be sure. AIM SMALL, MISS SMALL:)gun). 7STW [/QUOTE]
