[QUOTE="Codyg510, post: 722694, member: 49514"] How long has it been since you cleaned the chamber? My rem 700 started doing the same thing a few weeks ago. The bolt would lift fine after firing, but the casing was stuck in the chamber. After the casing cooled i could eject it without problem. It occurred to me that i had just cleaned the barrel, but not the chamber. Some cleaning agent combined with carbon buildup can make for a bad combo in the chamber. I went in and thoroughly cleaned the chamber (nasty, dang long-throated rems) and my next trip to the range went off without a hitch. No more stuck casings. 73.5 doesn't seem terribly hot for H1000 in a .300WM, but all rifles are different. Just doesn't seem like 73.5 would cause over pressuring. [/QUOTE]
