    Browning x bolt

    You could run a larger chamber reamer in to it Yogi.

    Then you can keep your lovely rifle and get it upgraded with a bit more horsepower.

    For example if its a 7mm rem mag contact kiwigreg here on the forum, he will run a 7/375 reamer into it for you and supply you with brass, dies and load data , problem fixed. And you get the upgrade that you were probably going to want to do in 5 yrs time anyway !!!!

    What caliber and chambering is your Sendero?
    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time

    Still will never be right once the chamber is out its very hard to bring it back as reamers will follow each other

    It was in 7mm rem mag and sent it back to the bloke i purhased it from. Dont think a reamer could have fixed it....an angle grinder would tho!!!
    Half the rifling was missing at the start of the barrel at the edge of the throat.
    It will probably end up floating around on trademe. A bloke always said to never buy rifles of trademe..... those words echoed in my mind when discovering it was a crook model.
