gunner Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 hi , ever since i had my Remmy700 blueprint and rebarreled a year ago , it sometimes leaves two distinct marks on the top of the case neck , like when you trim to length , it leaves these marks shiny and sometimes leaves a tiny sharp burr from one of the marks that you can feel with your fingers ! if you looked directly down into the case the marks are consistently at 8 and 4 o-clock . sorry i cant do pictures , but its bugged me for a long time . waiting 17 months to get it built ( waiting for barrel blank and reamer, then to fit it in ) and1750 odd quid later , iv never been fully happy with my long awaited rifle . SMITHS what do you think causing it ? btw my brass measures 1742 so not too long ????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 1742? What is the chambering? The next thing - what is the exact length of the chamber in your rifle? Not very easy to measure - but, it will be on the reamer drawing - your smith should have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggersqueezer Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 i'm probably talking rubbish but rems have a very keen ejector ?? try using your finger to stop it marking against the side of your action as you eject.keep me posted if it was ??

gunner Posted December 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 GP-its 223 ackley so as far as im aware its the same as saami223 , max 1760 ? im sure its been doing it since new . i will find out tomorrow -get a photocopy of blueprint drawing . cheers its a possibility .. TS- iv lightened the ejector spring in the bolt , bradders told me how to , it was easy really . it was denting case necks so it had to be done .. also the extractor claw was shimming brass of the rim every time you close the bolt ! blxxdy remmies lol. thanks for suggestions guys .atb..tim..

The Gun Pimp Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 When you have a non-standard reamer like your 223 Ack, there is absolutely no reason to assume it's the same as the SAAMI spec. 223 Rem. Get the reamer drawing and see what the length of the chamber is - from boltface to mouth. Trim your brass 15 thou. shorter than this figure. Not saying it will solve your problem but at least your brass length will not be the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
