so if you have a very well cleaned brand new barrel that you can NOT drop a factory hornady round without it sticking (and i dont mean just barely, you have to tap it out) due to the bullet touching the barrel, is it in spec or out? i have one like that but i really think i could tubbs it or just shoot it some and it would "clean" up that part of the barrel. of course as i hae stated already though my bolt is out of spec enough to not pass the go/no go gauges. it wont go but a LBC bolt will and i have more than one extra of those to try. my dilemma is should i just tubbs it or shoot it with a good bolt or not? i wish i had a great way to polish the throat that was perfect. and yes i have already contacted satern and they are more than willing to do whatever i deciede.
