[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 893255, member: 2736"] I'm in 100% agreement with Hired gun on this issue. The Weatherbys are not harder to lap because they are essentially an interrupted thread, and therefore very accurate. I check them with Blue Dye and most of the time they need very little lapping. And if they do, it is not hard because they are so close in the first place. On the issue of 9 small lugs compared to 2 or 3 large lugs, There is more total lug surface on the 9 small lugs making it stronger. Years ago White laboratories tested all commercial actions to destruction. all actions failed (Blew Up)except the Mark 5 Weatherby. molten Brass flowed out around the bolt and the action could not be opened, but it remained in tact. A very good reply HG !!! J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
