Howdy,
I have been working more with cast boolits lately for my 336 30-30 in stainless. The thing that is bothering me is that on nearly all the boolits I am using, I have to crimp above (sometimes substantially) the crimp groove or the bolt won't close. I have heard/read that Marlins of the past few years have short throats/leades. Is there a way to increase this dimension so that I can crimp in the crimp groove? What effect might this have on overall accuracy? How much might it cost? Or, am I off my rocker for even considering this? Thanks for all the help.
Kevin
