[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 69162, member: 10"] [b]Re: Rem 700 \"Embellished\" receiver[/b] 4ked Horn, Gordy is a great smith using the correct method to dial in a barrel. It is not the ONLY "correct" method though. Each Lathe will be different in what system works best. My personal lathe is very large and as such with the the Bcuk 6 jaw chuck in place the barrel would need to be 36" to even reach the back of the spindle bore. As such I use the method I do. The muzzle bor eis perfectly dialed in at the chuck and the breech bore is centered off the live center and then supported by the steady rest. The key is getting both ends of the bore dialed in, how this is done is of little importance as long as it is accomplished for chambering. What Gordy is doing is certainly not over kill, it is the correct way. I do not have an extractor retaining clip for a M77. Can the original be stoned down to work properly without thinning to much?
