[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2236668, member: 68758"] I'm not clear on whether the failure to extract is loaded/unfired, or after firing, or both... If you place a round in the bolthead, feed/put in battery, then try to extract the round is it still retained by the bolthead? Then, this is probably on him. What exactly, did he do to the action? If he trued the lugs and receiver abutments, you lost some primary extraction. How much, depends on the amount of material removed from the lug faces and abutments. If it was borderline to begin with, and he faced lugs and abutments the bolt handle probably needed to be re-timed. Did you call the smith? This should be your first step... Call me crazy; I never send out a barreling job without test-firing, and a function check. Was this a new receiver? If it was not, what was it's history? [/QUOTE]
