Allan, I was curious about how casual Anschutz users might determine that the headspacing on their particular rifle was not what it should be. For readers in general (as you no doubt are aware), the best way to know what the headspace actually is on an Anschutz remains to use graduated headspace guages. Only then it's possible to know if headspacing adjustment with shims or other means is required.
Regarding bolt shims in general, is there a purpose to them other than adjusting incorrect headspace? After looking at the website in question, there was an absence of instruction on how to check Anschutz headspace. At the same time it implied accuracy-improving results simply by adding a shim, the size of which was to be determined by testing. The website showed pictures of targets shot with bulk ammo as evidence that adding a shim will work.
Unless a shim is needed to correct headspace to CIP specs, it's not clear what any shim will do in practice with ammo that can be relied on to give trustworthy results. Shooters should note that there's no reliable evidence that shorter headspacing produces any accuracy benefits. If this is simply a "shortcut" to improved performance, shooters would do well to recall that there are none that are effective.
