[QUOTE="mpayne, post: 2180359, member: 56332"] My daughter Cassandra missed a nice buck a couple years ago with REM 700 bolt lift. We snuck up on the buck she got in the Bipod pulled the trigger and all we heard was a loud click, louder then just the firing pins going forward. At the time I thought it was a bad reload anyway Cassandra took off after the buck I picked up the round off the ground where it was ejected looked at the primer and not a mark. I was scratching my head Cassandra was chasing the buck and never got it Turns out after inviting that we could lift the bolt just enough that when you pulled the trigger the bolt would slam shut but that’s it. The problem is Cassandra is left handed and was shooting a right handed gun when talking it off her left shoulder it came open just enough. In the end she got a nicer buck the next day with the same gun! [/QUOTE]
