Thumbs up c.a.i. headspace ?

the headspace has been checked 2 times . once when i bought the rifle and at about 1500 rds., good to go. i reload for all my guns, and this rifle is very easy on cases. i have been using 47.0 grs. of imr 4895,with 150 or 147 gr. bullets, cycles beautiful and has never failed to feed or eject. as for firing pin retraction i can see no problem. the reciever shows no sign of wear. i do keep it greased and clean.

Sounds like you got a good shooter Jim. Mine's easy on cases too,no dents on ejected brass. In several hundred rounds I've had one misfire due to ammo.
