This may sound stupid, but bear with me.
I've been shooting my 3 Mosin-Nagants for the past year 2-3000 rounds. Primarily with Bulgarian HB and Russian surplus. I've never had a case split or anything except for 1 in 200 primer blowback with the Bulgarian.
Now I've become aware and obsessed with checking my headspace. I bought a No-Go gauge and it failed in 2 of the 3 rifles. Now I'm mailing for a coin type field gauge from Yankee Engineering.
I'm just wondering how many of you bothered to check headspace and how many of you trashed your rifles because of headspace? Or how many correct headspace in any manner?
Thanks.
