Thread: Advice on issues with chambering a round.

I have a husqy 9.3x62 and use norma 286 gr projectiles in it, fired several hundred rounds through it of the same ammo and no issues, the bolt is super fluid.

I fired 10 rounds yesterday and no issue then.

Today we came across a mob of goats, I went to chamber a round and hello.. the bolt slides forwards and 1/3 down easily enough but then requires some force to close it fully ? ejected the round and tried another,same thing with next 12 rounds. My mate was saying "just fire it, she'll be right" but I wasn't so sure.All the hairs were up on my neck. This isn't some rimfire and I value my face and limbs.

At home the same thing with another pack I tried.

Bolt seems the same solid brick as always and slides smooth as silk without rounds. ? Ejects round no issues.


Any idea on whats the issue? or is it not an issue and I was being a puss as my mate said ?
