[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 60692, member: 10"] LarryO, I would bet its nothing more then some brass chips that worked their way into the raceways and then teh working of the bolt rubbed it to make this smear. If its brass it will be a little harder to get off them copper with sweets but it will still come off with a little scrubbing. The main areas that cause these little chips of brass are the extractor and the plunger ejector hole. Everytime you clean your rifle be sure to clean the bolt face clear of any small brass chip. I assure you they can bind up a firing pin pretty tightly if they are the right size and get into the firing pin hole. Never fails to happen at the worst times as well. Good Shooting!!
