What size bolt face for 404 Jeffery
I am thinking of buying a CZ 550 action and having a 404 Jeffery built. What size bolt face is best, the 375 HH or 416.

The average man's love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary. It takes a special sort of man to understand and enjoy liberty; and he is usually an outlaw in democratic societies.

You would want to start with a 375 bolt face. The 416 is too large.

Here are the dimensions of the case heads in question:

375 H&H = .532"
404 Jef = .543"
416 Rig = .590"

Ah, but where is the fun in that. I know from a cost perspective that would be the smart thing to do. A fool and his money are soon departed. Big Grin
