[QUOTE="26Reload, post: 2343379, member: 99519"] I've an older 700 bolt that I had to have a m16 put in to the bolt...65284 rifle...after install everything worked well..other than a 'tinging' noise with ejection....started having problems a while back..cases weren't making it out of action..extracted well then just fell off front of bolt back into the action......went by GS and we went thru it all.....pulled the firing pin..pulled the ejector spring..replaced with new spring & tested...same thing happened....more thought....pulled the extractor....had a HUGE build up of garbage inside..what it was no idea..how could carbon build there??? Scraped it clean..back together it held the brass better but still fails to eject....videoed the ejection..brass goes UP on ejection..straight into the bottom of the new 30mm scope...so I did an inspection on old scope and yep...hit there too.....std factory rem bolts eject straight out the side..not up.. We are debating drilling another ejector spring hole to push the brass more from the top and sideways.... Kind of like CA double spring idea...but use only top spring...and maybe modify the extractor face to release from the top of extractor faster to also aid in sideways ejection.......lots of money in this old bolt....fluted..and skeletonized..m16 extractor..... Expensive to replace.....but does not work well under a scope.... [/QUOTE]
