[QUOTE="wildcat455, post: 1673718, member: 102653"] It's not a question of controversy. It's a question of liability. It's in your original question. Could you put the correct cartridge in a rifle with the wrong bolt installed and would it fire? You aren't supposed to EVER have to know that. No one i know (including me) would take on the liability of answering that, in writing on an internet forum. Hypothetically let's say someone said yeah it'll go in the bolt will close but the case won't fire, even gives a few specifics of why not, then someone does it, and it does fire. Now someone wants to sue someone else because he said it wouldn't and he ruined his rifle and got hurt or dead. Count yourself lucky you didn't have to find out first hand, and move on. [/QUOTE]
