Hammers blocking in Seiler uprights

[Roger Jolly]

Hi Cy,
            The answer is no.   You tend to over ease the BR hole to 
get rid of the spongy feel, and it leads to key chucking 
problems.    I have had to correct quite a few BR holes that have 
been over eased, when the real problem has been BR height.   Sad to 
say, but I have been one of the guilty ones.  (blush, blush.)
At least I'm honest.
Regards Roger
