just thought if anyone is interested in having the bolt jeweled on their rifle you should contact Baldwin Bolt Jeweling at 989-843-8954. I called him last Monday and asked if it was ok to send him the bolt, extractor and follower. he polished the items then did a deluxe jeweling job on them, they came great and charged me 95.00 including return shipping, the great part was it was back to me in one week from the day I shipped them. I have a few more I think I will send him great work
 
This is one of those projects that I always want to try my hand at, and then I realize the price a gunsmith charges and second guess if the investment in tools is worth it.

Glad you’re happy with the work you got done!
 
Here's some pics from his website.

Would love to see a picture of his work on your bolt.
I will post up a picture later today, I also noticed that it even feels smoother when loading and cycling the bolt, he even did a nice blue job on the edges of the follower

Cool, thanks. Which jeweling pattern did you choose?
 
I,ve used Skip a 1/2 a dozen times and his work is outstanding, last one he did for me was my Whitworth 375, which I posted on AH. BTW have him do the follower also

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
