[QUOTE="coop2564, post: 2532360, member: 87214"] Do you own a CA rifle? I do. As I said earlier, they use min specs for chambers and throats so factory rounds are as accurate as they can be with min slop and min jump. That's what the tech manager told me. I had tight bolt close and open on my gun as well which after talking with CA they said that is normal on their gun and it will break-in its due to their min spec usage (each carthridge has min-max chamber/headspace specs). I had pressure signs on my case the 300wsm has two ejectors and both have heavy springs leaving mark on case even when no high pressure is there. The tight chamber and headspace leaves marring on case head until broke in, again they told me this is normal and NOT real pressure signs. The OP's case shown does not show pressure signs. And even if the rifling is slightly raised or long on one side it doesn't mean it is unsafe or will not shoot just fine. It doesn't mean the chamber is off center. Almost every gun has slightly uneven rifling beginning where they start in throat area, I've looked at hundreds and not one ever looked perfect and it will have NO effect on the accuracy, its the rifling at the end of barrel that matters. He has shot the gun multiple times with NO issues other than the hard to open bolt due to their tight chamber specs, that will break-in. This is my real experience with CA guns and talking with their technician manager. You don't have to like it nervous Nelly! I see why you need pills. [/QUOTE]
