Why is butter always the lubricant of choice when someone is discussing how smoothly their bolt operates... Which one of you clowns is actually lubricating with butter?!

Man I have never cleaned the inside of a shotgun barrel. The next shot will clean out the previous.i used to go pheasant hunting with a few guys from South Africa, they ran quail shoot ranch...big buck customers
they said when the day ended so many shots would go through the shotguns they would drop the barrel and action in a tub of diesel fuel
supposedly it was the easiest way lubricate and start cleaning out the fine sand, carbon, plastic from the barrel
But all that's scratched up
Think of the resale value...……..
PS this is a joke
A rifle used as it was meant to be is beautiful
This fella clearly knows nothing about meterology and contrail levels nor about high altitude jet routes whereby aircraft fly the same routes between nav-aids.
In the USAF, before launching, we would check the contrail level and make sure we stayed out of it.
Commercial carriers and the FAA don't care.
Not sure what this has to do with Defiance actions but it did take me back....WAY back! haha
Ah, I didn't even notice that this was the same guy in the OP video. Sorry for being so unobservant....but yes, I would not put too much credence into a fella like that....on any topic.I posted that because I like to know who my information is coming from before engaging. If this guy thinks contrails are a conspiracy theory etc...I just might not be as interested in his opinion(s).
Also, a furry microphone wind cover is like $10. If you’re running a defiance action and have someone filming you in HD there are zero reasons your should be apologizing for the ‘wind noise because you’re being authentic’ in every f-ing video.
This guy fails the test.
If you spec your Defiance properly (bolt body diameter vs receiver raceways) and use common sense with surface coatings, you have no issues.
If you spec the action too tight and get stupid with coatings, you will have issues.
The video is being quoted here as gospel across the board when it should not be.
Myself and others have purpose built rifles built on spec'd Defiances that are running excellently in bad conditions. I am pretty loyal to my suppliers but not to the extent I would put an officer or client in a bind by delivering something that is deficient in dirt, rain and snow.

Unless/until you buy a firearm, then you immediately gain an in depth understanding of statistics, physics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mechanics of materials, machining techniques........The average American's scientific and technical education level is near zero.
And they got all that expertise from gun forums.Unless/until you buy a firearm, then you immediately gain an in depth understanding of statistics, physics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mechanics of materials, machining techniques........
And they got all that expertise from gun forums.
agree 100000%
never seen so much misinformation and lack of knowledge concerning statistics, physics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mechanics of materials, machining techniques........
Think of all the threads that sound like:
Statistics: Still confusion about extreme spread and standard deviation, and what they mean
Thermodynamics: After a long fast string my target gets fuzzy in my optic, do i need a suppressor wrap
Fluid Mechanics: Which muzz brake is the best (even though the OP chooses the 3 of the same style of brakes) they all have the same gill shape and surface area and gill angle
Mechanics of Materials: How tight should i make my scope rings even though the OEM MFG suggest a range in the manual
Machining Techniques: I spend $1000 on a action which is cut on a 5-6 axis cnc machine that costs 500,000$, but my local gunsmith with a wobbly lathe says the face is out of square
the list goes on
@redneckbmxer24 question for you:
its been talked about forever that Cerakote especially if not applied properly will cause binding/sticky bolt, some guys call it "gummy"
since there are so many other micro/film/nano coatings out there, why on earth do people still cerkote the inside of actions...especially a Defiance which if not spec'd properly (customer choice not the MFG) will cause problems
makes me scratch my head at times...
Message decoded above
My favorite are the 'tards at M4carbine.net and arfcom arguing about metallurgy, especially arguing about what makes 4150 steel better than 4140, why whatever Carpenter alloy the army specified back in the 60s is the shit even though there are better products today, and the miscellaneous fuckery about "QC" when none of them grasp the fact that quality comes from process control and not 100% inspection.
I'm just like the fucking Madagascar penguins..............
Seems Chad at LRI is the only one doing Cerakote correctly, and even then, only because people still want their guns coloured.
It's just unfortunate so many people set things up for failure (I assume mostly out of the same ignorance that I had) before the info about clearance options became more widely known. Most of the country it's a non-issue anyway, but a few of the western states it is reality. One guy's perspective, anyway.
@Ledzep and anyone else..
is there a universal dimension/space between to limit binding (after coating)
bolt body and receiver
bolt head and receiver
thanks

What are the features that prevent those actions from binding and cause a Defiance to bind?Even with the increased clearances there's still better actions. Impact, Surgeon, Lone Peak, and quite a few others. I'd even take a Nucleus over a Defiance. ..................

Amen! Used to butt heads with our parts manager (should have been flipping burgers somewhere instead) all the time. Me: "Why for you ordered 63mm I.D. tubing?" Him: "Well that's what the piston measured!" Me: "Yes, and it's a steel on steel application so .020" clearance bore of the barrel to the piston body. If you checked with the bearing on it would have measured 2.490/2.492". What I'm saying is it should be 2.500 tubing. Re-order it! I'm not making a custom spec piston you clown!" He would run to my boss and cry, I would defend my stance and mr. manager would get another ass chewing for ordering the wrong shit and wasting time and money because he couldn't wrap his head around "clearances".Thank you thank you thank you
If I had a dollar for every time some gun forum tool wants to look knowledgeable by referring to fits as tolerances I'd be a millionaire.
Everyone take a hint: if you're not a machining, manufacturing, or engineering professional, please look this shit up and educate yourself before showing those who are how little you understand about how to things are put together and work.

CTO: Gnochi, every last millimeter of passenger space is critical.
Me: specifies part to maximize passenger space and push tolerance stacks elsewhere, and ensures there’s clearance to nearby unattached components so there won’t be any rattle or fit issues. Verifies with suppliers A, B, and C that they’re capable of making the part within budget.
Parts manager: saves 50% on the piece cost by buying from supplier D, who doesn’t have ISO 9001 or any comparable certification. I’m told it’s none of my business which supplier they went with, butt out.
CTO, to me: Gnochi, why can’t we build our preproduction vehicle test fleet?
Thankfully I’m not the person who got canned for that clusterfuck. (I’ve since become much less shy about butting my way back in, and bringing in backup from as high up the chain as I need. “We will be 2 months late to production if these specific parts don’t meet spec because the parts manager cheaper out” tends to be one hell of an awakening to C-level execs.)
