Chuckindenver is on this site and can be searched out. He's done his share of them...you can find him in the advisory panel.

If it's a sportier, it might not be a .30-06. For example, MANY of these were converted to .300 Win Mag by Century.

Good point, I kind of swept past that part. It works out the same.

when checking headspace on a 17 or 14..
remove the cocking assembly, remove the extractor, install the Gauge, even if it closes on the tool, but you can feel it resist..it passed...if it flops down easy, then try a field reject...if it fails that tool, then its time to replace.
