[QUOTE="Eat Rice, post: 1674073, member: 93550"] Just because they swapped and ran smoothly between 2 different guns and a standard cartridge and a magnum doesnt mean thats an answer. Your bolt raceway sounds like it not correct. When somebody says that you need to open up your bolt for a magnum cartridge its only where the head of the case goes. The outside if the bolt(where you are having problems) does not change(well it does between manufacturers etc) you need to take the firearm to a smith and get it checked out completely and fitted.please dont just swap bolts and fire. Most if not all bolts need to be fitted and tuned to the action. [/QUOTE]
