word of caution, the bolt likes to bind. BAD. and the only way to deal with that is to take the damn gun apart and pull the bolt out.

don't forget tumbling is also caused by centrifugal forces. Slowest moving end of an object tries to become the rear end. its how we stabilized bombs. Fins slow one end down so it hits fuse first.
