So the saga continues with my brand new rifle. I took it out to sight it in yesterday. In the first 4 shots I had the gun on the paper at 50 yard and it was printing itty bitty groups. I however had 2 casings that were difficult to eject with the bolt handle. I didn't think much of it, fired off a 20 more rounds all Hornady 120AMAX factory loads, and about every 3rd or 4th round would literally get stuck in the chamber. I have never had to exert as much force on a bolt as was required with this gun. The shell casings show a "nick" mark on the shoulder and when shining a flashlight into the chamber I notice a slight imperfection at the very entrance into the bore however I don't see markings on the fired brass casings there. I know I know, you all will say "send it back to mfgr" but I was wondering if there are tools you reccomend to "rework" or clean up a chamber without harming accuracy. These chamber imperfections seem very minor but enough to make ejecting spent casing a fairly difficult and PAIN IN THE ASS task.
To add to that, the gun also doesn't run the rounds off the top of the magazine properly. Rounds always point high and left and jam themselves into the action corner where the barrel meets the action. I have to single-load every round.
