Picked up a Razor G3 and the Zeiss went back on my 6arc gasser. Planning on going to zero both tomorrow. Looking forward to comparing them side by side.
And so it begins...

Welp, looks like I am going to get me first experience in cleaning a carbon ring. Last range trip I noticed the bolt getting a little hard to close. Today after zeroing, about 35 rounds in it became pretty much impossible to close the bolt and had to hit the bolt knob to eject the unfired round. Tried it again with a fresh round and same thing. Looked at the unfired rounds and saw this. Unfortunately My Garmin was dead when I got to the range so could not get any velocity numbers to compare to normal. Any great suggestions on getting the carbon ring taken care of?
I busted out the borescope, which I really avoid using. I assume that is the carbon ring I am seeing at the begging and end of the video?
After messing around a bit, I think it is Ammo related. The ammo pictured above is 140gr Hornady ELDM which this rifle has seen hundreds. Tried a different box and chambered as usual. Tried some Federal GMM and it also chambered, a littl tighter close, but reasonable.
