Where can I get a XR100 Remington in .204 machined or reworked?

The bolt face was embedded with brass after a shot was fired after a reload with no powder. The two bullets made it out of the barrel but the face and extractor properties are lacking now. Also the firing pin hole is not uniform.

How do I know if the barrel will be fine?

I found company that makes a replacement bolt PTG. Is there anyone you guys can recommend to rework the gun?



HELP PLEASE

You may have a bulged barrel. What damage is done to the bolt "Could" be repaired but would not know until it is evaluated. I may have a used bolt that might fit. Email me if interested. Where are you located?

It was cause by Bullet "a" with no powder firing the bullet out of the case but probably not out of the barrel.... then Bullet "b" fired after
