[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2072552, member: 10755"] Hi all, Have an issue on a new Rem 700 Sendero II in 300WM RR serial #. After firing, if you lift the bolt and do not withdraw it and attempt to re-cock the firing pin, it just falls and when you open the bolt again to withdraw the bolt there is a hesitation and the cocking piece is held until an audible click is heard and the bolt withdraws easy peasy. If you pass this click and go forward again, the bolt cocks normally. Now, I have dismantled the firing pin assembly from this bolt and swapped them from other bolts I have, none but this one do it no matter what bolt or rifle it’s put into. Is it simply the ramp on the cocking piece is too high/proud and is getting stuck in the sear? I have not come across this before. I was thinking of stoning, but that may take a long time to remove. Anyone have an insight on this? Cheers. TIA. [/QUOTE]
