Re: 22-RE question
That explains a lot
Re: 22-RE question
yes but you have the heat up the entire head in an oven, to about 500 deg.
then take an air hammer with the correct bit and drive them out. After that is complete you have to drive the new guides in with lube before the head decreases in heat....My suggestion is take it to a machine shop.
Re: 22-RE question
thanks for the info RLMS! and yeah i will send it off, might have them do a few more things while it's there...any idea of what might cause this?
