Ruger firing pin


Recommended Posts

Would anybody know what the protrusion of

a ruger firing pin should be?

My friends 6.5x55 had recently punctured a few

primers on factory lapua rounds. Didn't puncture his homeloads.

I cleaned the caked up firing pin polished the surface

and measure 1.68mm or 0.066". Is that too much?

 

cheers

Looking through the net 0.066 seems slightly excessive.

 

I would have thought 0.055 to 0.060 would be closer to the desired length.

Thanks Martin,

just shortened it to a tad over 0.055 and the fella collected it already.
