[QUOTE="jdyoung, post: 1908126, member: 113391"] [I]3- as mentioned you could have a bolt timing issue. If the cocking piece is contacting the cocking ramp on its final journey forward it could cause the bolt to bounce. [/I] When the bolt is rotated into battery, there is a milled flat/rest that is to contact the right side of the receiver rails. If that flat is too deep, the bolt rotates too far when in battery. This causes a misalignment between the sides of the sear on the cocking piece allowing it to rub/contact the straight side of the bolt cocking ramp when fired . The bolt then jumps into alignment with the cocking piece. Moreover , the rubbing robs some of the power of the striker spring slowin' the striker. If your heart is beatin' like a rabbit, you want that striker to have all the speed it possesses so you can properly time the primer strike between beats. [/QUOTE]
