[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1134355, member: 77249"] With the Montana having a Stainless Steel Barrel I doubt it has been shot out. If you get the rifle the first thing I would check is the firing pen strike on the primer. The Montana has an adjustable firing pen and may have been miss adjusted or the set screw was not tightened properly and the firing pen has backed out. I have a Montana in 300 WSM, It is my go to rifle for hunting in bad weather. I do not know if the longer action has any flex that would cause a problem. The action to me is a great one for its features. 1. Full Mauser extractor and full loadingl shell control. 2. Adjustable firing pin like a Sako. 3. 3 Position side safety like a Model 70 Winchester. 4. The easiest bolt dis-assembly of any action I have with the pop it ball setup. Good Luck if you go for this rifle. [/QUOTE]
