Im planning to build a .223 trainer. I have a savage rifle I was was planning to use, but now I’m wondering why not just run a .223 bolt on my rem 700 with rem-age / ARC barloc setup.
Off the top of my head I think there might be issues getting proper lug contact on the 2nd bolt by lapping it in, well not without affecting my .308 bolt. I would think if the lugs on both bolts are machined for uniform contact it should work fine.
Am I over thinking this? If lapping both would work fine I could do it myself. If machined is the way to do this right, is this a common thing? Any recommendations on a smith?
