Thinking about this. Often things will be tight when new and loosen up as the parts work into each other.
Works with other factory ammo but not Wolf.
Wolf is notoriously underpowered.
What if your gas system has some kind of blockage, as if the gas block was not well-aligned with the gas port?
This could explain early troubles with all ammunition, but then as parts worked in and the whole system loosened up, only the underpowered Wolf remained affected by some gas blockage, leading to short stroking?
Bolt works in another gun with a different gas system?
Double-check the gas system?
Then, again, doesn't explain multiple bolts fitting tight in an empty chamber....
If bolt-to-extension fit is too tight, I suppose that drag could slow down the carrier velocity enough that it shows up on underpowered Wolf, manifesting in short stroking.
Couple theories here. Will check when I receive it.[/FONT]
