So, I am working on my recently acquired FN actioned 9.3x62. It is quickly becoming a money pit, of non recoverable expenses in a passion project, though it is becoming a bit of a drag trying to figure out what kind of stock I should get, how much I want to loose there.
Now, just to make the situation more exciting, I started to think about nitriding the bolt body. Has anybody done that on classical rifle like an m98. I have several nitride bolts on my plastic/carbon rifles but I am not sure having it done on an m98....
I am open to suggestions and even more to reports of personal experiences.
Thank you!
 
I clicked this thinking we were getting a bolt notarized and filed at the courthouse…..

Glad to see it’s just getting nitrided instead of sworn under oath.
Argh, the spellcheck got me...
 
Explain the benefits--is nitride so hard it eliminates wear/smooths operation? Every bolt I have ever seen has places where contact has worn off the blueing entirely. Would nitriding resist this wearing off?

Would you want a Ruger Super Blackhawk in trade for the HUsky?

Be careful of hunting Chewore South, the area has been decimated.....


Curious about this. I hunted Chewore South with D&Y in September and they did tell me it was there last hunt there.

Which outfits shot it out?
