[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 705451, member: 5219"] Sounds there was a bind between the bolt and chamber in the new barrel. The factory barrel's chamber must have been a bit larger in diameter which kept it from binding. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. I have seen three rifles in 30 yrs of handloading that had their bolt faces opened up for magnums and they were not opened up enough. That caused binding issues too. Hard bolt lift, hard removal or difficult feeding with a CRF were the symptoms. Now you will put this in your bag of tricks of things to remember and will most likely never see it again. The irony is that sometime in the future you'll encounter another new problem and be back at square one trying to figure it out. [/QUOTE]
