[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 30034, member: 66"] Baldeagle is right. Your lugs are galling. Might be able to lap it out, but headspace should be checked by a smith. If the galling is bad, it will have to be machined out and the barrel set back to correct headspace. Take it as a lesson learned- you gotta lube those things!! A little grease will help prevent that in the future. [/QUOTE]
