well, after a call today to saturn and a short conversation, i have determined this. yes they do test all chambers with a go no go set of gauges but its one master bolt they use. then i have to figure they get another bolt from boxful of them and ship it. my bolt is not going to work. also, they have a new reamer coming shortly to take a little more out of these barrels that seem to have a somewhat short throat if the owner wants. i personally am going to send mine in to have the work done. i am hoping and can only hope is for it to just get enough taken out to make sure that a good normal bolt will chamber a factory hornady round without touching the rifling. jsut factory rounds. i dont need it bored out deeper. i figure this will either come out right and a good shooter or not. i really dont need a budget barrel thats a sub par shooter, this caliber just costs too much to shoot for that. its gonna be a learning thing for me. i really dont see myself ever buying a "lesser" barrel again. you really do get what you pay for it seems.
