Hello all!
I'm new here and have a question regarding controlled feed v. push feed.
I have a 7mmWSM and it's a controlled feed bolt head. I'm looking to replace the bolt head with PTG's machined bolt head but I think their magnum bolt head is push feed only. Has anyone ever converted their CRF to a push feed? And if so, did you have any negative side effects? I'm thinking all I would need to do is remove the standing ejector that the controlled feed uses and make sure the bolt head has the ejector, etc., installed in it for it to work. Basically, the main reason for replacing it is that when I look at the bolt face, it doesn't look flat. It looks like there's some cupping or something going on with it, in particular around the firing pin hole.
Thoughts?
Thanks for the help!
