Assembled bolt as properly as possible. Firing pin protrusion within correct range, cocking piece flush with end of firing pin... I assume this meant firing pin end flush with the back part of the cocking piece hole furthest to the rear. Not even a dent in the primer.
I'll order the chamber casting stuff from Brownell's in an order I need to place.. I'll slug the barrel later and mic that.
Some of the literature I've read and videos I've watched suggest using a nickle or a quarter to keep some spacing so you can disassemble the bolt. I have to use the end of a 1/4" brass drift to get the spacing needed to rotate the bolt off. Does this mean anything to anyone?
