[QUOTE="Traxxis, post: 1259284, member: 8980"] Eff no! No dremel. And you also DON'T need it to shine like a mirror. The angle built into the ramp is important, and not to be messed with. More-over, the edge, where the cradle meets the frame ramp (wait... is this a ramped or non-ramped barrel?), MUST be sharp, you do not want to round that edge over. Trust me, you do that, you're SOL for the most part. The thing people need to understand is that the nose of the bullet does NOT actually ride up the ramp and into the chamber... it skips off of it, and glances into the chamber, so all you really need to do is remove any large horizontal machine marks... but it doesn't need to be a mirror. Also, is this a steel frame? [/QUOTE]
