Well, correct. The mere inclusion of C158 does not, alone, a good bolt make.
But, it is a known quantity from a known source (Carpenter, even though you can get it from other places as well). I can't say the same for all batches of 9310.
I trust Joel to make a solid product. Without caveat. But I'm looking for more than what equates to a lateral move in bolt improvement if I'm going to jump-ship on a C158 bolt from a quality manufacturer. LMT's use of aermet steel and improved geometry being one of the possibilities.
