    Curioser and curiouser.
    Couple of weeks since opening.
    I did have a quick test and shoot with this after using the lads ATA for the morning.
    Last time I tried it after my cough...modifications after I cracked the shits with it last year.
    Now for reference I tried it last year with the same falcon ammo I used for this opening. Last year it was still leaving them in the chamber every couple of shots and leaving dents in the bottom of chamber.
    I'll come back to the last bit.
    Doubt I cleaned it in disgust until I shot it this year.
    Got a handful of high brass from kotuku, wandered away from camp and put the 6 through as quick as possible.
    All good no issues.
    OK I'll give it a blat for the evening shot knowing I had the semi for a spare.
    Shot maybe 15 odd rounds with it, no issues. Mmmm OK
    Grabbed a handful of empties and found a couple with dents to compare later and did that yesterday. Pics for reference.
    The dent actually looks like it's from the extractor slot on the bolt.
    No marks at all on the high brass and not all of the Falcon ammo had marks either. @NCGNSMITH i have been meaning to come out for a chat but had a bit on.
    See pics of cases and bolts.
    Cases shouldn't do that.
    Also stupid that it didn't get a stuck case once. I could get it to do it repeatably every 3 shots so it's strange it shot probably a packet without one.
