Whoa!
Sorry to have missed these posts. Have been busy and ill of late.
The process is exceedingly labor-intensive, and I'm still conducting testing with as many variables as possible, but yes, in the setups tested thus far, bolt/sear wear is now a thing of the past.
My most heavily used setup is now running well over 50,000 shots with zero wear on bolt or sear, and the other setups, while lower in mileage, are also pristine.
The problem is making sure the principle is fully understood, and works across all possible variations and platforms.
Moreover, I've no interest in performing this as a service owing to the time, labor, and irritation involved, but as the final results are well worth the initial effort (if you care about such things), once all the data is in, and the practice confirmed beyond reasonable doubt, I'll be happy to let it out for public consumption, with the caveat that it's an at-your-own-risk kind of mod.
Basically, if done right, the sear and bolt become immortals.
If done wrong, they become memorably extinct.
