[QUOTE="Brother Buckwheat, post: 2909973, member: 76005"] Rem 700 stainless, 300 Win mag., 3-400 rounds max. I have a little over 600 factory core loct rounds left Bolt.lift is not really an issue, lifts just fine just won't come back without a wooden mallet forcefully "popping" it back. Seems that once past the scratches near the belt the bolt is pinky loose. The fired Barnes head-stamped empties will not rechamber, the empty Coreloct will. This is all factory ammo shot at around 70 degrees and 5500 foot elevation. I've never reloaded for this gun because I have an abundance of factory coreloct that I acquired when I purchased the rifle. And should I want to reload, I would just neck size and bump back the shoulder which it seems I will be doing with the core loct brass to satisfy the state requirement on non lead bullets. No carbon ring in the throat, the problem is at the belt area. [/QUOTE]
