Hi All,
Just looking for some thoughts on this to set the shoulder back. I have heard of 2 methods: a. between centers b. dial in the chamber. This is factory barrel & chamber (300 win mag hunt rifle). I lean toward "a" as it keeps the chamber inline with bolt. At this point, i cannot indicate off recoil tenon face or shoulder. Like most factory barrels, nothing is straight, parallel or concentric. The reason its apart is because the factory (defective?)recoil lug has a oversize chamfer and the barrel and lug was gouged changing the poi.
Thanks, Bill
