Canuck223 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 OK, so after a marathon reloading session I figured the 1050 was due for a detailed cleaning. I clean it regularly, and lube it appropriately. After 25K+ rounds, I figured it was time for a tear down. I was shocked to find out how little wear the linkage showed. Once the old grease was wiped clear, the bearing seats looked perfect. The linkage between the shaft and the crank looked like brand new. I was surprised at how light they were. I'm actually thinking they might not be steel. The limit of any noticable wear was a small 6mm round area of pitting on the crankshaft in the bearing area right beside the cut out for the crankarm indexing nub.

Retread1911 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Wait until you hit 250,000. That was cool. I am over 300k now and cranking it as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
