[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 845080, member: 9281"] Thanks for the input fellas. I actually just repaired the problem. I got out the rifle and was really looking the bolt over. As you'll see in photo number 2 above, the extractor has a bevel on it that 'should' allow the cartridge base to push it out and clip the rim of the shell. I realized that there really wasn't a sharp enough bevel on the extractor in this area and it didn't come to a very sharp edge either. I got out my dremel and made the taper/bevel longer and more gradual coming down to almost a sharp edge. I polished it up smooth with some 1500 grit and now all the rounds chamber fine. I'm glad it was simple:D [/QUOTE]
