Blueprinting and Accurizing
Bringing Select* Bolt Action Receivers and Bolts up to the "custom" level by remachining all critical surfaces true, square, and concentric with the axial alignment of the bolt raceway
Action Prep
Here's a typical Remington 700 after the barrel is removed. The factory barrel will be recycled and the action will be cleaned and prepped for accurization processes. Note the very crudely machined surfaces, many of these I have observed an almost "bandsawed" torque shoulder!
Action Raceway Gauged or Conformed
If the action falls within acceptable tolerances, the bolt will be appropriately sleeved according to the precision bushing measurement, if the action is oversized, the raceway can be reamed to uniform size and bolt will be sleeved to fit precisely and reliably.
Axial Alignment to NEAR-ZERO (within .0001") TIR
Our custom made jigs, beefy precision machines, and tooling ensure rigid robust repeatable work-holding, providing the best surface finishes and tightest tolerances. The action bearing surfaces are precision machined square and concentric, providing a perfect framework to build a precision rifle.
Threads, Bolt Lug Abutments, and Barrel Torque Shoulder
Receiver features re-machined to within .0001" equal, square, and true to each other, the world, and the datum centerline of the receiver itself - giving the cartridge a perfect starting point!
Bolt Truing and Accurizing
Similar to the Receiver, the Bolt features are also precision machined square, concentric, and true to it's centerline, the Firing Pin hole. We precisely machine the bolt face preserving the built-in extractor.
Bolt Body Sleeving
Reduce bolt "slop" in receiver, tightening tolerances and keeping bolt lugs in perfect contact from chambering to detonation.
Bush Firing Pin Hole, Reduce Firing Pin Tip Diameter
Reduce Firing Pin Hole and Firing Pin Tip size to prevent primer problems with hotter loads.
