Sent rifle out to have barrel cerakoted, the barrel was removed from action, coated and reinstalled however the barrel was not indexed exactly as before. The barrel would have needed approx 3/16” more tightening for the caliber designation to be where it was prior to coating. Gunsmith said it was an oversight on his part but would not affect headspace. He offered to fix it but that would require shipping both ways. Is this correct that it will not affect headspace?
