Holland bolt mod

[mousegunner]

I had a Holland bolt handle put on my new PTG bolt for my Rem 700 but wondering if anyone has modified it by bending it back with the same sweep as a Rem bolt and maybe put a tactical knob on the end. If any one has some pictures I'd like to see what it looks like to see if I want to do this later. FYI the Holland was put on to fix some primary extraction issues since the angles matched up better but who knows maybe I'll get used to it and keep it.

I did a Rampro action project a coupe of years ago for a friend. He had bought a stock that was bedded for a Remington 700 action at a gun show and wanted to use that for the Rampro action. The bolt handle cutout had the slanted cutout, the Rampro had a straight handle. So, I did heat up the handle and bent it back to fit the stock. There are some tricks to do this without scaring the handle.
I tried sending picture but too big of a file, sorry.
But Friend was very happy with results.

Did not lose money, read my post, I had a NEW bolt installed and that also needed a new handle. I'll trust my gunsmith that had the rifle in his hands and said the Holland handle matched the angles better for primary extraction and would work better.

Second I shoot NRA High Power and have no issues with the rapid fire stages at 200 and 300 yards with my Rem 40X, I got my technique down.
