[QUOTE="Edd, post: 1849742, member: 30592"] I don't know the exact measurement you are looking for and don't know where to look to find them but I can give you some things to consider. You want as much case inside the chamber as possible. You don't want the case to protrude so far that some of the case web is not inside the chamber. You want a minimum amount of chamfer on the chamber. On the Remington 700 style bolts I've measured, the distance from the bolt nose to the bolt face is about .150". You will need about .010" clearance between the bolt nose and the barrel. And remember, I am not a Gunsmith. [/QUOTE]
