    Jaco Goosen - well Gunworks did do my Howa 1500 bolt fluting a few years ago. Maybe they don't anymore? The rifle has never experience an issue since. Otherwise T3/X bolt fluting common as for them.

    Cheers mate. Think they must have stopped, it says "No Hawa bolts as they are to hard" on their website.

    Maybe I should ask?

    Reloaded rounds thru it a bit harder to prove than fluting.
