Bolt work done by Baldwin Bolt Service
 
Mighty shiny.
 
That looks great, how does it work now?

What does it do besides make it shiny?
Works great supposedly after you wipe it down with your favorite gun oil a thin film remains in the jewels and makes the bolt a little slicker to work. I just like the way it looks
 
I had this done on my Whitworth, but first I had that Gawd-awful swept back, knuckle buster bolt handle cut off and a large straight Rigby style bolt handle put on. Win-70 Safety as well. But you have a great start...........thanks for posting............FWB

Hi Joshlee0518 (please let me know if you are fine being addressed like that),

Thought I would drop you a PM. It is super exciting to plan a hunt and we are more than happy to assist you. Have you given any thought yet to which species you would like to take?

What do you hunt usually and which weapons/calibers are you using?

Look forward to swapping experiences and ideas.

Happy hunting - Daniel
Our trophy shed is filling up and we are only getting started,

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)
