[QUOTE="Doozy, post: 1846416, member: 102153"] I had no idea there was such thing as a .001" shim. I just looked it up on amazon, and sure enough... In another month I'm going to put together my first gun (a hunting rifle in 300 PRC) which is why I thought I'd browse the gunsmithing posts. It is Savage-shanked barrel/action. I bought a Go and No-Go gauge from Dave Manson Reamers. Now I'm wondering if I need to add a shim to my Go gauge. Is this something you would recommend [USER=2736]@J E Custom[/USER]? If so, do you have a recommendation on the thickness (if this is a proprietary secret, then I withdraw my question; I'm innocently ignorant in this area of gunsmithing). [/QUOTE]
