[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 2541340, member: 11960"] This is a blast from the past! LOL I wouldn’t dream of running over 40K psi on a SOCOM bolt in an AR. The 800 series bolt from ARP was capable of handling the pressure from the .473 bolt face wildcats based on the 6mm BR case at safe working pressures of that case, 52K psi. I actually burned out both the 6.5 BRX and a 270 AR (270 Dasher) barrel on that rifle, both using the 800 Series bolt and extension, with no issues. I’ll just point out the obvious fact that you probably have a bias towards the Fatrat, given the fact that it’s your screen name. LOL It’s a great chambering too, and a better option now that the ARP bolts and extensions are unavailable. [/QUOTE]
