[QUOTE="projp, post: 927947, member: 9992"] Bushwackr Two years ago I bought a Rem 700 in 300WM. I had the exact problem you have. With initial hand loads the bolt lifted but would not extract easily. Tried minimum loads with same results. Tried factory loads, still stuck. I took it back to Cabelas and whined. They offered to send it back to the factory or have a local smith look at it. I opted for the smith since I did not have weeks and weeks to wait for Remington. I told them my suspicions of a rough chamber so they ran the reamer and polished it. Problem solved. This is the gun I was posting about the two shot group. PS: Before I had shot the gun and knew of the problem my son bought one just like it..........Exact same problem. They both were probably reamed at about the same time. [/QUOTE]
