[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1706248, member: 33159"] I had a similar issue with a 338 Lapua. It ended up being a two fold issue. Ironically enough, Broz helped me diagnose one of the issues and then I took it to my gunsmith. I had a small bur in the chamber that needed to be polished out. The bolt click and sticky brass only happened with resized brass. The chamber was really tight too. I also found that I needed to neck turn the Lapua brass I was using. It was too thick. This part drove me nuts for some time until I figured it out. I happened to read an article that talked about this issue and the solution was to try another brand of brass or neck turn the problem brass. Nosler brass didn't give me a problem. See if a bullet will slide easily through a fired case. If not, you have a neck thickness issue and will probably need to neck turn your brass. Not sure if this is even an issue, but thought I'd share the problem I had to possibly help you out. [/QUOTE]
