[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 942644, member: 8358"] Jaybic, you mentioned a crush fit upon closing. Was this the way the chamber was supposed to be fitted? If so, what brass was used to check chamber dimensions with? I honestly believe the chamber will probably not close on a no-go gauge. I had a rifle built that had some generous proportions once and neck sized only and had no trouble with the brass. Once brass has been fired in your chamber it is a custom fit anyway, so I don't see the big issue with it. Chambers in a rifle are like any machine part and have tolerances, and it sounds like your rifle is within tolerance, therefore I think you would be out of line to make a complaint to the smith. Strictly my opinion. [/QUOTE]
