[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 101813, member: 5302"] The 'smith who has trued all my Win. 70 actions does the following: 1. Screw a mandrel longer than the receiver into the barrel tenon threads then put it between lathe centers so the receiver face can be trued perpendicular to the thread axis. 2. Lap the bolt lugs to their receiver mating surfaces so both make full contact. 3. Screw an adapter into the barrel tenon threads to hold an end mill that's hand turned to square up the bolt face with the barrel tenon threads. That's all; nothin' else. I don't know of anybody who has trued up any box magazine (and perhaps any other) action that ends up in a rifle using cartridges larger than a .260 Rem. that shoots more accurate than what he does. There may be a few that will be equal. [/QUOTE]
