Yesterday Mark and I picked up the shortened bolt body from the welder. Now Mark will clean up the weld then back to the welder to get a new bolt handle attached that he has made which matches the original Oberndorf style. Then it's pretty much down hill from there. With the last question being what is the last step. I favor the action being sold to a custom rifle builder as it would make a truly nice piece. New barrel, nice piece of lumber, and so on... But it is Mark's and he will decide. I am just having fun being involved with my friend of more then 50 years.
