[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 332599, member: 3733"] I would hope that the smith would correct the problem for you, It's not that difficult to get a barrel to headspace within .002 of the go gauge. If he won't and you decide to live with it just set up your dies so you don't push the shoulder back any further than neccesary. If he will set the barrel back for you, have him FIRST take a skim/truing cut on the bolt face to get rid of your displaced ejector button hole. [/QUOTE]
