Quick question, with an action wrench on the flat is it supposed to pick up the bottom of the recoil lug or "other", is the bottom of the action flat? It's in the shed will retrieve later tonight for...

Thanks for the input lots of knowledge out there, I suppose the first step is to take the barrel off and find out the thread size then.

There are zero markings on the reciever

Build the broken screw up with a Tig until proud, weld a scrap of flat to this and unwind once cool.

If scrap breaks reattach. The heat will cook any locktite, the expansion and cooling also helps...

The 7/32 Drill with quill feed in the mill gave a great finish, was hoping it would cut a little bigger ended up with a diameter of .218.
