NEW From Zermatt Arms - RimX Actions

You’ve probably mentioned this already, but which ammo?

I had same failures across Center X, SK, and M22

May I ask what the previous barrel was/who made it?

Chrome, my bet is you had a tight chamber. When the case stuck was it difficult to extract by hand also? I played around with chamber size years ago with a different action but it was very drastic what a super small change made…

You may have mentioned it, but did you ever try to polish the chamber of the problem barrel?

My guess as well. I do not think the smith did anything new to the chamber when I sent it in to have it set back. At the time when I was having the malfunctions I didn't have the nifty .22lr tools to easily pop the rounds out of the chamber so I had to cleaning rod them out from the muzzle.

I did not try to polish anything myself on the problematic barrel

It was a bartlein CF barrel from a SH group buy a few years ago

I know what your problem was/is. But I'm not going to start anything.

Can you say what the problem was without implicating anyone? Just curious, but I understand why you may not want to say.

Let me just say that Chrome PM'd me and we seem to have agreed what the problem was.
