[QUOTE="TRG65, post: 1620278, member: 103919"] The Rem 700 was known to pierce primers on small rifle brass when converting a 308 or the like to something like 6.5x47. Why I’m not entirely sure. I had 2 6.5x47s built on Rem 700s, both had excessive cratering until I had them bushed. I’ve heard of this on Ruger RPRs, but mine has never had a problem. My Sako TRG has never has a problem. As far as bushing and turning or replacing the firing pins. I’ve always used GreTan, but I’ve also heard LRI does a good job. However, I’m sure there are others. [/QUOTE]
