[QUOTE="cabelasken, post: 2207813, member: 117774"] I had a similar problem with a 257 roberts barrel installed on a Mauser action. The gunsmith left tooling or cutter marks on the chamber walls deep enough that as the cases were fired a couple of times the bolt became difficult to lift. I spent hours honing the chamber walls with a light buffing compound in an attempt to take off the high spots and even now some cases will stick. unfortunately the problem was discovered after the gunsmith had moved to another city. The score marks on my rifle's chamber walls are similar to the pics above. [/QUOTE]
