I am currently trying to rebarrel my Steven's Model 200 in .223 remington to .243 winchester. I have the barrel,bolt head,magazine box as well as barrel wrench and headspace gauges. My problem is the front baffle. I definitely have a short action. The current baffle has a long leg on the outboard side that contacts the bolt stop. This prevents the bolt being withdrawn far enough to allow the longer .243 ammo to be feed from the magazine. I purchased another front baffle for a short action (sight unseen)and got the same thing I already have. My question is can I shorten the leg on the new baffle until it allows the bolt to be fully withdrawn or do I need one for a long action?
