[QUOTE="Smithy62, post: 1959707, member: 112065"] Unfortunately it is one of their actions design-faults: the before mentioned, combined with the extractor-cut and the front recoil-lug recess-cut all reduce the available treaded surface area & all three cuts are severely weakening the brl’s abillety to provide a consistent 360 degrees lock-up pressure on the action face! Nevertheless it is still safe to shoot as I’ve never heard of any blow-ups! No doubt in my 58 yrs old mind of gunmaking experiences: this is one of the reasons that Kimbers and to a lesser degree the Win 70 & the MRC will never display real fine benchrest accuracy and the very reason being why the old M98 is still the ‘King of the castle’ in the controlled round-feed department!
