[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1603997, member: 10755"] Only malfunction to date is my Win Model 70 Classic Stainless that I rechambered from 375H&H to 375 Weatherby. Removed the trigger assembly while reaming the chamber, everything went back together as it should, dry firing showed zero problems. A week or so later I wanted some fireformed brass and headed out to shoot a fox or two and rabbits I’d I saw any. Found a fox pretty quick and it was trotting along, so I swung and fired and the fox spun a full 360 and sat down gnawing at it’s hind quarters. I rack the bolt and the cocking piece rides over the sear and it won’t cock no matter what I do. Anyway, the sear dropped into it’s recess and would not budge until I poked it with a screwdriver. Still have no idea why it failed. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
