bigbore,
You mention the collar is fitted against a step in the barrel. What is the dimension of the barrel where the collar fits (step), when compared to the rest of the barrel dimensions? Thanks. Great pictures by the way. I like that old lathe in the background.

If you purchase 10 barrels from a White Oak, or Compass lake, you will get 10 barrels and a bag with 10 bolts. The barrel extensions are set to a minimum headspace, and the bolts are checked, but thats it. Same goes for the real barrel if you have one - there was never a bolt fit to that specific barrel/extension. My CLE turned Douglas barrel came with a "fitted bolt". The barrel has a "serial number" engraved on it, and the bolt has the same number engraved on it. It would seem to me that they are at leased "matched" to each other. |

Nope, just means thats the one he actually pulled out of the pile and checked the headspace with. By "matched" it usually just means, " I did it with this one" The bolts are about 99.8% interchangeable if made to spec. The spec is not +/- its 0.00-0.001 so even on a bad day it will be dead on headspace, but most chambers are -0.001 from dead on, so absolute worse case, .02% of the time you end up with barely .002 Not a big deal at all. The only time you may need to specifically chamber to a specific bolt is if you have a bolt that has been coated, as you can have a 0.00 bolt with .001-.002 coating. usually the Chromed bolts will get you, and then usually on a match type chamber that was done, not much risk on a mass produced 5.56 barrel.
