[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 593978, member: 24624"] According to John Hinant's book, "The Complete Guide to Precision Rifle Barrel Fitting", there should be no more than .005" gap between the barrel breech and the foremost part of the bolt. So, it may well headspace correctly. But, sounds like too much gap between the bolt and breech. You need to return it to the smith and give him a chance to make it right before blacklisting him. -- richard [/QUOTE]
