My factory protrusion length was 58 thou. My new aluminum firing pin protrudes 60 thou.
What is the proper length it should protrude?
Like I said, factory was 58 thou.
I've installed a few aluminum firing pins and they were all between 53 and 60 thou, which is consistent with what the factory pins were at before removing and installing the aluminum ones. I think any variances in protrusion are more due to inconsistencies on Remingtons part machining the bolt, than on the firing pin itself.
Thanks
Anyone looking to do this by the way, Make sure to measure the protrusion of the pin to make sure it wont pierce the primer, or miss-fire
