[QUOTE="specweldtom, post: 161576, member: 2580"] Kirby, the hole that scares me is the .450" deep, blind hole drilled lengthwise in the bolt from the back of the new extractor slot. The one that the new extractor spring and plunger goes in to push forward on the Sako extractor. I figure that if I break a drill off in that hole, I probably won't won't get it back out, and I'll have to pay for a replacement bolt (when and if I can find one). The kits called for a #37 drill, but I used a #40. The #37 is too big. I've heard of a few cases where people said that the Sako extractor would pop out, and wondered if they were using the #37. Eddie PM'd me and I think that it wasn't clear for him which hole I was talking about , either. Both of you must have a way of drilling that hole that is not scary. I don't, but would surely like to. Overbore; don't want to hi-jack your thread, but it makes sense to follow up here. I hope you don't mind. Thanks to all, Tom [/QUOTE]
