Q- If I wish to tighten up the headspace on my T and fit a bolt head that closes a bit tighter does this affect the action considering in the molecular scale does this taking up of the slack place more compressive force on the action at ignition of the round.
Also does this affect the bearing surfaces on the bolt in its altered headspace I ask as this rifle I gather is relatively unchanged.
According to PL my rifle was utilised in pad testing and its serial No. is so printed and mentioned in his Co-authored book with Ian Skennerton
The only reason as in the quest having my T professionally re bedded I thought I could fit another bolt head to take up a smidge more on the case.
Plus saving the original bolt head, now after you ask why it is only a question to wringing the last bit out of my T, I have plenty of 0,1,2,3 bolt heads to fish around with.
