[QUOTE="David Emerson, post: 1833826, member: 112579"] Either galled which you could see on the lugs or you set the lugs back into the receiver a touch. But that would take many rounds of blowing the primer I would think. If the lugs look ok I would run a bore scope in and have a look see on the lug abutments. Another thing I just thought of. Does the bolt lift hard while still cocked? Just maybe your striker cam got galled. If you set the lugs back into the receiver some you should feel a step as you lift the handle. The more I think about this if you had set the lugs back I do not think you would have ever been able to get it open without unscrewing the barrel. [/QUOTE]
