Re: T-bolt issues ;(
keep us posted as my mates 17 hmr t bolt started doing this a few months back, only it was more like 1 in 10 would misfire/not fire, then upon ejection, the projectile would stay in the barrel and have to be knocked out with a cleaning rod. not good.........
tried the ammo in my savage 17 and no probs.....
i just recently gave his bolt a full degrease and clean out as well as scrapped all the gunk out of all nocks and crannies in the action. hasnt had a click of death yet, but every now and then there will be a click...........bang but they still hit the rabbit he was aiming at so.......
after the case is ejected leaving the proj in the tube, i tried lighting the powder with a lighter, and it barely fizzled let alone caught fully....
time will tell, but this suddenly just started happening after about a year of solid service and a few thousand rounds downrange.
if yor gun is new and is misfiring at all, first, change ammo, then next ring browning mate,
22lr ammo is known for having the odd failier to fire, especilly with cheap stuff.
so yeah, change ammo bud, then see what goes fom there.
good luck mate, the tbolts never did much for me, but hope yours turns out all good, also, make sure you keep it oiled well as my mates 2 tbolts both rust at the drop of a hat, espec under the barrel and reciever in between the stock.
