[QUOTE="johngibbs222, post: 2008670, member: 49619"] My take on it is if the brass is as OP says and if it's the same with new unfired brass then it's possible the damage to the case is occurring outside the chamber as it feeds in. I'd pull the bolt out completely and try dropping a round in then, if it drops in, look at the mag follower for distortion and if you can take the mag out check there's nothing broken off in there or some shrapnel from where I don't know. May even be an extractor issue. Chambers and bolts are pretty difficult to distort/damage, so I would sure be looking at the mag etc. [/QUOTE]
