[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 447821, member: 2736"] Polishing a raceway is not the best way to solve the problem. The reason that they(Wheeler) stopped was ether sales or people were wearing the raceway to much by excessive polishing. There is several ways to improve the feel of a rough action. the use of graphite is messy but it does smooth out the action. Also you can molly cote the bolt and the receiver and it will fill any marks or scratches. There are some good Teflon based coatings that will also make a large difference. If you use any of these methods it will break in on its own. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
