Sorry for that , but it will not work so i´m linking the thread. http://forums.nitroexpress.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=155056&an=0&page=0#Post155056 hope that works. Starting my update: WR made a cut in the front receiver ring from 11 to 3 o´clock. Deepness ca. 5mm. The total amount of the thickness behind the upper locking lug is 10 mmm. Reducing material at that critical area by 50 % is to my view creating a predeterminated breaking point. Technically ( international not only teutonic !) indisputable. Good for what ? For proper loading long rounds - even by clips - it´s enough to cut a small radius at 12 o´clock. So done by various makers (Rigby´s .416 , H&H .244 Mag and postwar production.300 Mag and .375 Mag. made up on standard length actions. Even to be seen on Original Oberndorf sporting rifles in Cal. 30-06 !). Only additional effect of the way WR did it . To eject an u n f i r e d round. An empty shell will easy pass the receiver without that treatment. |
