problem

This is a well used Remington 700 with a total of around 7 thousand rounds thru it so I'm not complaining about the rifle, but I was getting some really odd results yesterday. It was piercing primers (which it has never done) and getting light primer strikes during the same day using ammo that...

Wanted to check around and see if anyone else has ran into this. I picked up a used 504 .17MK2.I know the fellow well that I got it from and if it's been fired at all it isn't much. Tore her down to clean and adjust the trigger. I dry fired her four times on a snap cap and the cocking...

First time using my Redding comp bushing dies, have always used standard FL dies in the past. I am using Blackhills match brass (Win) When they were loaded from the factory they measured .333"-.334" so I ordered a .332 bushing. I just ran a few through the die and checked the inside neck...

Just picked up a Rem with a rather nice crisp light stock trigger (unknown work done to it). Firing pin cocks when rifle held horizontal while working bolt. Firing pin cocks when holding rifle with muzzle up. But... with the muzzle pointed at the ground, firing pin does not cock. I'm...

Ok I rebedded and pillared an old rifle in a laminated stock and hit the range. Everything went pretty well and shot several 5 shot groups under 3/4" and several 3 shot groups crowding the 1/2" mark. When I was looking the rifle over afterwards I noticed the bolt is hitting the stock. What...

I finally got all the parts and pieces to assemble my DPMS .308 SASS. After everything was put together, my bolt catch lever wouldn't depress and lock the bolt back. The DPMS lower takes a hex-head screw instead of the normal AR type roll pin to keep the bolt catch lever in place. Well, I...

Hey everyone, I have a remington 700 LTR and I am having problems closing the bolt when I chamber a new round. The back end of the bullet is torn up from the extractor, so I assume it is a problem with the bolt/extractor. Has anyone had this problem before and how did you fix it? Thank you...

I have a nice Remington 700VS in .308 that I have had for about 10 years now, always been a heck of a good gun, last weekend we were out shooting at 450yds and all of a sudden it wouldn't fire, come to find out the trigger was not resetting. I took it apart and started playing with adjustments...

I just had a parker hale 22-250 barrel set back 5/8" to tighten the chamber up. He also faced the chamber lugs a tad where the mauser actions tend to dimple them. I can see where the bolt was marked and timing checked. The problem I have is a new winchester case will chamber, a resized case...

I purchased a Winchester Mod. 70 push feed HV in 223. I'm having a problem with ejection of empty cases. The problem is not the ejector but the extractor. The cases are not held in the extractor long enough to clear the receiver walls to eject' they simply fall into the magazine. Using a dummy...

I purchased a new Badger M5 from another member who never installed it. I noticed when I tried to mount it that the rear torx bolt was way too long (2"). The front one fits fine. I am fairly confident that these were the ones that originally came from Badger. Could it be just a mix up or am I...

I took out a SAKO TRG-21 .308 out to shoot today. I went for my third shot. I thought I had chambered a round, but had not. I was using the safety between shots. I clicked the safety off and went for the shot. I got the normal dry fire click, but when I went to open the chamber, the bolt...

Several weeks ago, I was cleaning my new Taurus PT 1911 AR and getting ready to put it in my bed side nightstand. I keep it there, loaded, next to a flashlight. I placed a full magazine of 8 rounds in the pistol, cycled the slide and fed a round into the chamber. I then lowered the hammer to...

I posted this under the rifle section a few days ago and got no responce so I figured I would give it a go here. To update I took the rifle out yesterday and had one FTF out of 6 rounds fired. I am really at my wits end,please help if you can with any ideas. I recently sent my 5R off to be...

Ejection on my rifle (Anschutz 64 MPR)was very poor, 1/3 of the cases exit properly on the right, 1/3 out the left side, and 1/3 just lay on top of the next shell, regardless of how fast or slow you work the bolt. This seems to be a common problem on this model, and is totally inexcusable on a...

I recently sent my 5R off to be dura coated so paint would stick to the stainless. I got it back and wasn't really happy with the results. The finish was thin in spots so you could see the original black of the stock and there was some run over into places I didn't think there should be. No...

I have a 700 PSS and the problem I had was I would load up rounds to be 2.80" long to fit the magazine so i can plick with the remmi at the range and have a repeater. Or I would load up rounds to be 2.90" for dead on accuracy, but since the round was too long to fit the magazine, i would have a...

yesterday when i was out shooting my buddy that i went with started having problems with his remy 700 it wouldnt eject shells i told him the plunger was probrably sticking when we pulled the bold out upon inspection sure enough that was the problem but we soon noticed that it wasnt just...

I installed a Jard non-adjustable 2# trigger in my DPMS 308, I replaced my Holliger tuned RRA two stage match trigger. Everything went according to their instructions and it worked well through 100 dry fires at home. At the range the trigger did not seem to get cocked unless I manually...
