[QUOTE="Jester896, post: 1475362, member: 41793"] Were all 3 guns built with the same reamer. yes brand barrel with same specs including head space? yes I agree...Guns built off the same reamer should be able to interchange fired brass and ammo. I'm lost as to why the work was done on the receiver you listed. the rifle was once a 7mm STW built be another builder. The threads are oversized and the STW beat up the action lugs. The original bolt was replaced due to errors (bolt face wasn't straight) with it. Rather than resurfacing the bolt face to correct the .007 difference I chose to replace it. We just touched it second time to make sure we did the work properly after the initial cut. Material really wasn't removed the second time. The other 2 times we just measured. In one of the measuring sessions is when we found the issue with the bolt face. I have contacted Bartlein twice now. Once with a phone call, I am probably as hard to catch as Frank, so i didn't leave a number in the VM message. The second time I left a number and an email address in the VM message, still waiting to hear back from either method. [/QUOTE]
