[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 740138, member: 5219"] Your description has some of us confused. Is a case stuck in the firearm or are you having difficultly extracting the case? If you eventually get the case out it isn't stuck. If you are removing these "sticky" cases there can be evidence as to why they are not easily removed. If bolt handle is hard to open I'd suggest pressure. Do you chronograph your loads? You could be over the pressure limits but be under max load data suggestions. If bolt opens easily but won't go rearwards with difficulty I'd suggest a chamber with a enlarged area. The case is swelling to fit that larger dia area and resists rearward movement. It can happen due to a very high pressure round going off at some point, bulging the chamber just in front of the web area. It could have been done when it was chambered. All subsequent rounds fired, even low loads will have same problem in removal. A tell tale shiny area will show on case near web. Please give us more details. [/QUOTE]
