So theoretically, you would have to shim the bolt out by 15 thou also. That is a silly way to do it.If you shave 0.015" off the breech face of a standard chamber CZ barrel, you get about 0.020" of engagement of the bullet into the rifling. The standard chambers must be cut to just "kiss" the bullet, 0.005" of engagement isn't something you're going to see or feel.
In my defense, I did ask for clarity, and you had not previously mentioned setting back the face for the barrel tenon.Why would I shim the bolt when I can just set back the barrel shoulder the same amount in the same setup as the breech facing operation? If you guys want to learn something, just ask.
To be fair, Rabid (or Leuchtkafer) did say the following in post #40. It refers to taking something off the breech face.In my defense, I did ask for clarity, and you had not previously mentioned setting back the face for the barrel tenon.
While shimming the bolt would work, this is the proper way to do it.

I got that , it was the bit about facing the shoulder of the tenon that was missed. Just facing the breech would increase distance between bolt face and breech face; barrel would need to be set back in order to tighten up head space.To be fair, Rabid (or Leuchtkafer) did say the following in post #40.
