[QUOTE="hemiford, post: 2865503, member: 72104"] If you decide, for whatever reason, that the chamber needs "cleaning up", "adjusting", "fixing" or whatever else to call it, what would be the smallest amount of material that you should remove (deeper that is) ? A few thousandths ? An eighth of an inch ? An inch ? You would obviously have to set the headspace again, even for a "touch-up/clean-up". If the surface metal in the throat becomes hardened, can that hardened metal be cut fresh with the reamer ? [/QUOTE]
