[QUOTE="7stw, post: 1904249, member: 22854"] That's the fun part about building a custom, or sometimes not. Second guessing, re thinking, what about this, what about that, etc. Depending on what action you have, mostly. Things should be done at and with a competent smith. As in doctors, there are some quacks, so buyer, beware. There are some good ones on this site btw. One thing my smith did for me. Was recut the threads, and square the receiver face. He indicated that was off, but is common with factory rifles. Threads were horrible! Bolt lapping can be done, but must be done when or before barrel is threaded, and headspace set. Hope this helps, not to complicate. [/QUOTE]
