[QUOTE="JAYgs8163, post: 2435452, member: 37460"] I had the same issue with my build. The Hornady ammo would jam into the lands and the bullet would stick and then the same mess you have would follow. No fault of the smith, barrel or the Hornady factory ammo. There are a few different reamers out there for the 6CM. The reamer used on mine was designed for the 105/115 Bergers. The Hornady ogive is farther out than the Bergers and causes this issue when using this reamer. Ask the seller of the barrel what reamer was used and then ask if he has the specs for it. It’s easy to fix if you have a chamber mod done to a SAMMI spec chamber. I reload and was only shooting this factory ammo to break the barrel in. [/QUOTE]
