[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 159037, member: 340"] To me... and I know close to jack shit about reaming chambers... the chamber may be a bit too small, but also too long. Yes, the 7mm Rem Mag is supposed to headspace off the belt the first shot, but after that, you should be able to headspace off the shoulder. Since this gun allows the shoulder to go forward at least .010, it's pushing the shoulder forward by stretching (too much) just above the belt and getting stuck. So assuming the main problem is too much headspace (off the shoulder), is there anything a DIY-er like me can do about it? [COLOR=silver][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Yeah, I'm with you. Bought it at Scheels. You think it's better to go back to them, or straight to Remington? -- I hope they don't try to give me some bullshit about voiding the warranty because I got the barrel cut and threaded. [COLOR=silver][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I've certainly thought about it. Wish I hadn't stuck money into getting this one threaded... There's lots of choices out there. What would you recommend? -- Please don't say Proof Research. Those look pretty awesome, but damn are they spendy. [/QUOTE]
