Some of y’all probobly saw my last post about new Winchester 1885 low wall in 223. I noted a day or so ago that the scope mount will not sit flush on the barrel. There is a small gap. I pulled the mount. It’s straight as an arrow. Any thoughts?
I know the barrel is tapered. I would have assumed Winchester would have machined their mounts and taken this into account.
I have access to a machine shop. However I have very little experience using an end mill in order to machine the receiver end down a few thou.
