[QUOTE="hybridspecies, post: 2258284, member: 119219"] Thanks for the confirmation on the bolt face - I still think mine was poorly machined though. Primers used were CCI BR2. I like your idea about getting a bushing installed in the bolt head. Any recommendation on where I can get this done (forum members?)? I'm not sure if I understand your point about changing out the bolt head - can I buy a drop in replacement from Savage, or elsewhere, that doesn't need fitting or were you referring to reinstalling the original bolt head after the bushing is installed? I'd prefer getting a replacement bolt head, if possible, and installing the bushing in it instead of the original which is still under warranty. I haven't removed any of the primers yet on the spent 6.5CR Lapua brass, but here's a photo of a CCI BR2 primer installed in a new piece of Lapua 308 brass for comparison: [ATTACH type="full"]290268[/ATTACH] Thanks for the help.
