[QUOTE="ThrdKllr, post: 1783329, member: 110734"] Here’s my take on it and I may be completely wrong. The cocking piece on the bolt on a 700 is beveled. When the bolt is rotated in to battery the rear of the bolt rises up to come in contact with the top bridge of the action. With the bolt sleeved or the “Borden Bumps” the bolt is held down by shimming the bolt so it can’t raise up and keep the bolt face perpendicular to the bore. But one thing I don’t understand is why couldn’t the bolt face be machined while in battery in the action and the sleeving would be unnecessary. Or use an action with a 90* cocking piece such as a Howa or others? [/QUOTE]
