[QUOTE="BillR, post: 545088, member: 462"] My hunting buddy and I both bought Sendero's in .264 Win Mag. When we went to shoot the first time I had no problems with mine. His would do like yours and would leave marks on the case head just chambering a round. He also had problems closing the bolt. After doing some checking with a Hornaday OAL gauge we discovered that the chamber had a short throat and when chambering a round he was actually pushing the bullet down into the case. Accuracy sucked and he would blow primers. He sent it back to Remington and they sent it back having found no problems and doing nothing. He called them and was not polite about it and they finally said to send it back again and that time it was re chambered right and now has no problem with the gun. Accuracy so far is in the 3/4" grouping with factory ammo but he is reloading for it and trying to get that shrunk a bit. [/QUOTE]
