[QUOTE="Texas Speed Bump, post: 2652356, member: 115057"] I've never re-blued the bolt in the 45 years I've been shooting this rifle. Since I made this post months ago, I've been doing load development for it with some 85 grain Hammer Hunter bullets (still need to do more shooting with them at 200+ yds) but needed to make sure I was still on zero with my traditional 120gr Nosler BTs before opening weekend in a few days. The 120gr NBTs have been the main diet of this rifle since Jesus was a kid and I broke open a box of vacuum sealed cartridges that were reloaded in 2008. At the 100yd range (using a Leadsled) the first shot was dead center in the bullseye, so I quit right there. So, the rifle is still shooting great, and the bolt is still a bit heavy compared to something like my Bergara, but that's just the way this action has always been. I guess if it ain't broke...
