[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1107311, member: 27307"] jaybic, If the headspace is that far off I'd have a good gunsmith check the entire rifle and barrel completely. He should slug the bore especially to be sure that it isn't oversize...Then check the crown and concentricity of the chamber. Technically you should send it back to Hart to have them correct the chamber headspace but if they QC'd it and released it to you then why bother. If you don't want to work the brass as suggested above, the barrel can be set back and the chamber cut to the proper headspace but by a qualified gunsmith this time. Regards. [/QUOTE]
