[QUOTE="Glenn Tullius, post: 2365421, member: 110556"] I had that problem with my new CA Ridgeline in 6.5 PRC, called them, and they said "are you sure the brass isn't hitting the bottom of your windage knob?".....duh, boy did I feel stupid. Moved the scope about .10", fixed. I thought mine wouldn't eject the empty either. Christiansen Arms recognized the long brass issue, and long bullets that were going to be shot. They cut out the bottom of the action opening (see picture) to a length of 2.725", and added a .10" to the mag for long bullets. Except for those two differences, the Ridgeline is based on the Remington short action. Very smart and well thought out. My [B]short action [/B]Remington is only 2.495", a very considerable difference! I don't have a Bergara of any kind so can't speak to that action opening. I would be interested in knowing what the Bergara action opening measures. See my CA Ridgeline pic of action. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
