Interesting read. Glad your rifle shoots for you!
Seems strange for AA to screw around for two months trying to find an extension that timed though. Sometimes it seems like people aren't thinking- I once bought a Lee .480 Ruger die set and the shell holder wouldn't accept Hornady brass. I was talking to their rep about getting another handle for my Classic Cast press. (I bent the original resizing .50BMG brass.) I mentioned the shell holder to the rep and she offered to email me a pre-paid RMA to return it. I told her it was only a $6 part and the shipping would be more than the value. She said, "Oh. That's right. I'll send you a new one." Four days later the handle and the shell holder arrived in the mail Parts and shipping was free..
I'm sure AA lost their butts on that barrel with all the labor spent spinning extensions on and off! I guess they made it right (eventually). I think I'll keep my distance though. Waiting two months for someone fix a problem that could have been solved in 4 days by sending you a new one (made correctly) is not my idea of time well spent.
Glad you're happy! Enjoy!
