[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 147077, member: 10"] I have seen them done and from the most part have never seen a problem with it BUT, when you consider that the only stressed area of the receiver is really from the bolt locking recesses and forward, I just get nervous removing any steel behind or between these lugs or anywhere near them for that matter. You can increase the bolt throw quite a bit by just setting back the bolt stop or fitting an aftermarket sako style external bolt stop. FOr the short 325 WSM, you would not really need to mess with the ejection port unless you throat the barrel very long. An external bolt stop is easier to machine then milling open the ejection port. No metal refinishing either. Just my opinion, everyone has one. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
