[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1399391, member: 2736"] It can be fixed by re-facing the bolt face, But then the head space would be to much. The time to fix this is when a new barrel is installed and head space is based on the newly faced bolt face. I have seen many bolts "Much worse" work fine and with no safety issues. This is more of an appearance issue that Bothers you and not a safety issue. It will be fine, so shoot and enjoy and when the time comes to re-barrel Have your smith fix it. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
