I just got another bolt back from Wells, it is very nicely done and looks great. Timing is now perfect.

Re: Tig'ing bolt handles?
Do you need to send the action in with the handle to get it properly timed or can they mark it's current location, remove the handle, clean the soldier and tig?

IMO, the action should go along. Ive done a several now, and personally wouldnt do it without the action.

Re: Tig'ing bolt handles?
When I true an action, I usually fit a new PTG bolt as part of the truing job.
It's just not worth re-working a factory bolt when you can get a PTG for $125.
I would never tig on a bolt handle without having the action there to time the handle.

Re: Tig'ing bolt handles?
Receiver/bolt in hand works best for me too.
As mentioned: its almost a no brainer now to go with the PTG one piece bolt.
By the time a guy spends his sheckels on shipping, labor, coating, etc you'd of had it.
Much better part for you in the long run.
