[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1099889, member: 10755"] You could quite simply turn the rims down yourself and have the bolt face cut to suit, but there is a big BUT coming. A lot of 500 Jeffrey rifles have trouble grabbing the rim EVERY TIME. It is quite difficult getting a rebated rim of anything more than .010-.015" to feed properly. The other problem, if it's CRF, is timing the extractor bevel. The case rims and extraction groove MUST match for angle and depth. I researched this to no end before I made my decision on buying the 505 Gibbs, reliability is No.1 in my eyes when it comes to cartridge design. Even the WSM's/RUM's have had trouble in some rifle designs due to the rebated rim. Why not start with a rifle action that can handle the case design FIRST? Cheers. lightbulb [/QUOTE]
