    I have not heard back yet from LMT. I just got home so I have not had a chance to check out the bolt face. I probably will not be able to get to it until tomorrow.

    Thanks again for everybody’s help

    I am not certain if you meant "your old bolt" literally, but from what he posted it is an LMT bolt. He posted that LMT already replaced the bolt once because the ejector was too long. I agree it will not hinder function, but I do think LMT should know about it and have the opportunity to correct the problem.

    Yes, he had his bolt (which had an oversized extractor) replaced by LMT, this is a new bolt (also from LMT). The oversized extractor on the old bolt probably did this to his chamber face.

    I took a few quick pictures before I left for work. I am not sure exactly what I am looking for. What would peening look like?

    Upper is going back to LMT. Gene said he is probably going to put a new barrel in it. A+ for Customer Service
