There is clearance at both the rear V and the recoil lug.this might be okay for a smaller calibre but a heavy 300 is going to move the bolts over time and Ive already had consistency issues.Īs above - an engineer is looking tomorrow, will be interesting to see what they say, maybe the bolts are enough. But as you can see from oil track on the rear section(note also the inconsistent gap each side) and the recoil cross bar - when the action is tightened up, the only thing holding the chassis to the action = screws. There are two locations in the chassis where the action is meant to be mated too and the action screws / bolts should pull the recoil lug and rear V - into the chassis for a snug fit.which equals consistency. ![]() ![]() I’m not a smith and don’t know exactly how big of a deal this is but based on my smiths reaction, a senior member here, as well as MDT - it’s not great. So, not touching on the alignment issues, Bolt holes not lining up, etc - here are two photos that touch on the more serious issue as I understand it.
