I've been reloading .308 for a while now and my friend asked me to reload some 270 for him. I got the dies and he gave me his brass and his savage edge. When I try to cycle his once fired brass I can't close his bolt and when I pull it back out it doesn't extract, I have to bump it gently with a cleaning rod to get it back out. When I full length resize the brass, I can get the shells to chamber but they still don't extract. But if I turn the gun muzzle up with the bolt pulled out they fall back out. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've never had this issue with my .308 reloads.
P.S. this is just the brass. I haven't loaded any up yet if that could be it.
