[QUOTE="Elknut, post: 2342022, member: 119289"] Curious what caliber your rifle was? I had a similar experience with a different manufacturer on a 300 PRC. Sent it back and they polished the chamber. Still wouldn’t eject. Then a new rifle. Same issue. Finally a refund. Always said it worked for them and never had the issue before (right!). A buddy bought a 300 PRC from a different manufacturer. Same thing. Both are semi custom manufacturers and cost well over $2K for the rifles. I now have a Bergara Highlander in 300 PRC that is in for a warranty claim. Have not even shot it but after cleaning and inspecting the bore did not look good. Lots (50-100) inclusions, even at the crown. Also some odd And uneven rifling. Hopefully bergara can figure that out. Personally I think the barrel needs to be replaced. Still going to hold my breath on the first shot and hope it ejects. I know Hornady’s SAMMI specs are already tight by design. Wonder if some manufacturers are used to tightening typical specs up to take out slop. Might be a mistake with the PRC’s? Rifle was sent in over a month ago and still has not been looked at. [/QUOTE]
