Do other manufacturers actually have large primer/small primer specific FP's? Or are you talking about bushing the bolt to prevent primers from flowing.Not looking for a fight. Just asking a simple question. Thanks.
700's all have the same firing pins sizes. The problem sometimes is not the diameter, but too much clearance between the firing pin and the hole in the bolt nose, and running max pressures. Bushing a bolt tightens up those clearances, and eliminate piercing with sane loads.
Yea,,, that I did know.
It's actually why I said ""Do other manufacturers actually have large primer/small primer specific FP's? Or are you talking about bushing the bolt to prevent primers from flowing."" LOL
I think it's more of bushing the bolt to prevent the primers from blowing.
