crostiger Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 was wondering if this seems like a normal amount of wear for a bolt for 150 rounds just seems like the finish came off still is smooth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep it all lightly oiled, especially the rails (the ears on the bottom sides). It will "gall" (not correct term, but only one I could think of), and smooth out a little. After that is done, it will shoot smoother and you shouldn't see much more visible wear from then on. I've got thousands of rounds through my SBE1, maybe even 10k+ at this point. Rails looked like that within a few weeks and haven't changed since except maybe a little more silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unobtanium Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 This is burnishing, not galling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew gall wasn't correct but was having a brain fart and couldn't remember correct term. Edited May 27, 2021 by bambihunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
