This is what happens when you don’t take care of your guns!
This Remington 700 .308 had been exposed to moisture in a case and never maintained. The threads are completely rusted and the bore is destroyed. The new barrel is an example of what the threads should look like.
This gun required a completely new barrel. The receiver and bolt was salvaged but had to be sandblasted and blueprinted/trued.
Costly mistake! Be sure to properly maintain your firearms and have them routinely inspected by a Gunsmith!
