I have a Rem 700 that was recently re-barreled, along with truing up the old action. I do a good job of lubing the back of the lugs where they contact the action, but I noticed that other day that there seems to be some light contact to the front of the lug as well.
I know on my Savage there is probably at least .010" space between the barrel and the front of the bolt head when locked, but the floating bolt head is a different set up than a Remmy.
Do you guys think it is an issue with the Remington, or is the front of the lug supposed to contact that collar around the chamber?
