Opening Saguaro bolt face

[nmiller]

I ordered a Saguaro in ppc bolt face but I found out it shoots a 6.5x47 case really well but I don't really have the time to turn 200 pcs of brass all to ppc head size.I have another bolt supposedly on order but it may not be ready in time for the IBS 600 yd nats. Can I open my bolt face from ppc to.308 on the lathe or by milling and still get it to extract alright? The cutting part shouldn't be too hard but I'm not ok with making my bolt a non extractor. I should only take about .017" more clearance for the larger case head.

thanks,

Nate

Turn the rims down on the cases. Very easy.

I do all of my 30BR cases. Don't want to hassle with cutting the bolt or other issues that could raise their head.
