    If he knew the source of the ammo or primers that caused the damage then yes he could claim for damages.

    You don't get it do you. We were trying to help you get your damaged bolt replaced. You had very good proof that your new rifle was damaged by faulty ammunition. You have chosen to not push the issue and keep your bolt. We all felt you were given poor information about it being normal.
    If you don't want to push it that is your choice. The way you have responded to that advice means that very few here will ever try and help you again.

    You do not know what etching is. It is where holes or pits are made in the face of the bolt. If you run a pin or something across the face you will feel the indents. Only one of the pictures shows that. The other three show discolouration, there are no holes or pits in the boltface.

    Arguing with an Engineer is like Wrestling a Pig in Mud.

    After awhile you realise the Pig loves it.
