[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1746323, member: 69192"] I have a friend who picked a Sako, Finnbear rifle in .300WinMag [U][I]at a very good price[/I][/U]. The previous owner could not chamber a cartridge, so he sold the rifle cheap!! This falls within the realms of [U][I]"If it's too good to be, it probably is!!!"[/I][/U] I'm pretty certain the seller knew what his problem was, he just didn't want to deal with it. Anyway we found the problem, there's a case stuck in the chamber. It appears that the casing separated just in front of the belt and the rest of the casing is stuck inside of the chamber. The friend came to me asking for my help, but I've never encountered a situation like this. Is there a stuck case removing tool made for this application, don't know what to do other than send the rifle to a gunsmith? Anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed from here? [/QUOTE]
