[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1069958, member: 24284"] I don't understand what you're showing us with the punch . Is that how much excess weld you have from using a mig? Why did't you taper the the rear O.D. of the break back to bbl. diameter? You put it on and it's your choice, of course,,,,,, I'm just wonderin'...... And, I thouht I mentioned mig is "too hot and too fast" for welding on bolt handles (on Rem. 700s). Not that it [I]can't[/I] be done. Sure as I say it can't someone would come along and be capable of a A+ job every time. I've mig welded bolt handles on Mausers, but there's alot more "meat" to deal with there. Tig is a lot 'cleaner' with a lot less excess weld to remove for blending the handle to the stub. The heat is controlled better, too. [/QUOTE]
