Thread: Little help needed

I think you will find this is a relatively well known problem with110's. I had it in my 110 in 338LM, had the chamber polished, problem went away. It stems from the poor machining finish which doesn't tolerate any build up/fouling whatsoever.

Take it to your local gunsmith for a look, or have a close look yourself with a decent light on it, if you can see circular machining marks it's most likely the problem. Chamber polish shouldn't cost that much, I think mine was $60 or thereabouts

Hey redbang. Think i might just suck it up and take it to a gun smith. Had a look but couldn't see too much. At the start of the chamber there is about 6mm of thread which i assume is what the barrel screws into. Should this have nothing screwed into it? Sorry for the ammature explanation

Gunsmith mate, he'll tell you !
