[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1936532, member: 63925"] True, but I had not seen there was a headspace discussion and still recommend any barrel being set to any receiver be set with headspace gauge as standard safety precaution and used the 35W caliber only as a reference perspective (headspace gauges for calibers that share the same shoulder .25-06, .270 Winchester, 6.5-06, 8mm-06, .338-06, and .35 Whelen). At least I would not be comfortable with a new barrel without gauging it. Heck I have .270 (go,no-go, field) set if he wants to borrow to confirm. I was thinking of only safety considerations for him. [/QUOTE]
