I dont know. I was not actually there. I am just spitballing. The remington date code stamps were certainly individual hand stamps. And the metal is thick enough in those areas against the lug to where I would not think the chamber area would deform at all.

The overload stamps were large stamps and may have been applied mechanically with a press or something other than a strike with a hammer. The impressions always appear to be relatively uniform which I would think not possible with hand striking. And that large of an area with that sort of pressure would certainly deform the chamber area without support.

Again, just my thoughts. I was not there.
