[QUOTE="livetohunt, post: 1436971, member: 100535"] I’m currently working up a receiver and bolt. I’m wanting to know the clearance to put on my bolt (or raceway) in order to get a very smooth but not loose feeling action. Also, the engagement amount for lug lockup. As a general practice, is the clearance put on the receiver? Also have some other questions... Receiver material is 4140. Would 17-4 work for the bolt? I can harden the materials to whichever hardness I need to. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
