[QUOTE="bear0402, post: 706150, member: 55676"] First off, wonderful forum. Been reading these forums for awhile, and this is the first time I've posted because of an inability to find the information I have needed. The problem is that most of the time, the second to last cartridge will eject as I am sliding the bolt forward to chamber the round. I am including a video link taken with my phone so you can see exactly what is happening. *Video is shaky. You have officially been warned.* The second round that does not get ejected in the video is another issue that I am working on. The third round/second to last round partially ejects from the gun as the bolt is being pushed forward, and exactly the issue I am attempting to fix. *Happens at the 15 to 16 second mark* [URL="https://www.dropbox.com/s/5h14mp2ydhzxyjs/20121013_130041.mp4"]https://www.dropbox.com/s/5h14mp2ydhzxyjs/20121013_130041.mp4[/URL] I have taken my rifle to the local gunsmith. He said that it just needed a through cleaning and polishing. So I paid for him to do it, and there was some improvement, but it did not completely correct the issue. Went from happening 80% of the time down to about 50% of the time. Any suggestions to completely fix the issue? [/QUOTE]
