  •   Price $300.00 

  •   Includes

  •  1.  Setting up the action in the lathe to machine it true using an action truing jig. A mandrel            guided by fitted bushings is inserted into the action and indicated true to within 0.0001            of an inch to determine true centerline of the bolt raceway axis.

  •  2.  The mandrel is removed and the action face is cut true with the centerline of the bolt                raceway using a single point cutter.

  •  3.  The action threads are recut 0.015" oversized on the lathe with a single point cutter to              guarantee concentric threads.

  •  4.  Then the integral lugs within the action are single point cut to true them . 

  •  5.  The recoil lug is opened up 0.015" to fit oversized threads on new barrel tenon.

  •  6.  4 dovetailed slots are cut in the bolt and fitted with dovetailed bosses ( a benchrest                  method of sleeving a bolt attributed to Bill Leeper ) to act as elliptical sleeves. 

  • 7.  The bolt is set up in the lathe and indicated true then the front and back sides of the                 recoil lugs are cut true with a single point cutter.

  • 8.  The face of the bolt is then cut true and perpendicular to the center line of the bore ( this           doesn't interfere with the factory extractor on a Remington 700).

  • 9.  Remove and properly set time for bolt handle, silver solder handle back onto bolt.
