[QUOTE="kfreeze, post: 1415903, member: 79596"] The field gauge is the one that the action should not close on at all. Ever. The no go guage is used for shops that cut chambers. It is to hold them to a higher standard of quality. Ptg explains this on the page with any headspace gauge they sell. I just replaced a lost bolt on a rifle for my cousin and the chamber was the same as yours. The no go gauge would let the bolt close with resistance, but the field gauge wouldn't go. [/QUOTE]
