    Re: How to check if both lugs have full contact? Your rifle must be fairly new if the rear of the bolt lugs are still black .Use a Red Sharpie on the black bolt lugs . Howard

    Just shot my best rimfire group ever.

    Re: Just shot my best rimfire group ever. Most of the time the Wolf ME works better for me , But it looks like your rifle likes the 711B , great for you as the 711B is usually cheaper. Howard

    Re: gun smith permanently attached muzzle brake I agree with Top Preadator with the apply of heat (about 300 degrees) and the locktite will break free , then let it cool and put some Kroil on it . You can use a low strength grade of locktite to assemble the muzzel break back . Howard

    Gunsmithing Dave Kiff Needs Advice

    Re: Dave Kiff Needs Advice Greg , I am only catching about .050" to .075" of the case head with my bolt now . I had to remove metal from the mag feed lips to clear for the bolt lugs . An adapter might work if it were to transition from a double stack to a single stack . Howard
