Primer markings
« on: March 02, 2021, 05:02:04 PM »
Any thoughts on why this is happening?  Bought this rifle used a couple years ago.  These markings are raised...not impressions.  Rifle is a Remington model Seven

Your bolt face has that impression in it. Brass starts to flow under pressure.

Yikes....that is one rough bolt face.  Worst I have ever seen.   Not sure if it’s a problem but dang......looks like someone used a file on it.

Is that a factory load or a handload?

I looks like someone smashed the bolt face with a flat head screwdriver.  :dunno:

I dont think id be too worried about it as long as it doesnt start to rupture the primers.

I don't know that this is what caused that, but blown primers will flame cut a bolt face in all kinds of crazy ways.
