    I'm guessing everyone on this forum are gunsmiths? Lol

    Na, you have missed the point mate, these guys are trying to tell you that etching on the bolt face is not normal but hey as long as you're happy with a box of ammo then best of luck to you.

    Lol mate do me a favour and go check out some second hand x bolts . Take a few pics and post them here and if they don't have etching I'll eat a whole couch . Lol . Should I have dropped off my rifle to you for inspection?

    Na mate, it'd be a waste of time cos i would've just told u what the others are saying.
    Don't need to be a gunsmith to know there shouldn't be etching on your bolt face. Surely if etching wasnt a problem then you would wonder why manufacturers polish the machine marks off the face.

    So every browning x bolt needs to have the bolt replaced?? If you go and see it for yourself that every used one has this etching will all the experts still say this even with the proof right infront of them ?? Lol wtf is going on .....

    WTF? You come on here asking for advice. People give you advice. They aren't trying to con you, they are looking after you. If that is the way you treat help, when you ask for it then go somewhere else.

    Pepper you need to chill a bit. These guys are not attacking you. The reason these guys are saying you got conned is because not one rifle made gets etching on the bolt unless some gas gets past the primer. That is what the hornady ammo did.
    Can you pm me who checked it
