BluntForceTrauma,
thanks for the complement....i was (retired now) and have been a trouble shooter my whole life...when i was working i would notice my coworkers would always be fixed on what was happening at the problem spot..i found that if i looked up stream most of the time it... the real problem was happening there and manifesting at the wreck sight ..lol...so i still look up stream when i am working a problem
yes it locks back with the 95gr loads.. it has never not locked open on an empty mag on any load.... as for altering parts i think the 200 mark is what i want to do, but i am planning on doing some part swaps with things i have and are coming in the mail this week... as to the extraction thing...it has always pulled the case out of the chamber....sometimes it doesnt get out of the port...i have had stove pipes and extractions out of the chamber but laying on top of the mag and cause a stoppage by jaming it into the extention...and once in a while it will flip a case around backwards and leave it laying on the top of the mag...and then i will get one that trys to get out..lol.. and it will jam the mouth of the case into the front of the ejection port....kinda like it is cycling to fast for things to happen, the bolt is moving to fast ...i dont really know how to explain that move it makes ...again montana touched on the over gassing thing and i have thought that too....so i will explan the plan of attack.. .lol
as for this one....well i took the rifle apart yesterday and did the chamber test thing montana talked about....i did it with 4 different loads..2 new factory brass loaded rounds 1 steel cased new round and a couple of my reloaded rounds...since i set the shoulder back .005 on auto loaders i thought that would be a good check also...they all fell out when i tipped the barrel up..so that is a go
i took the bolt apart and checked it out... i have noticed the rims of the cases do show marks from the extractor...so i slicked it up a touch...but other than that the case slips into the counterbore of the bolt just fine...ejector looks fine...i might try the spring clip Klem talked about to soften the ejection a touch but the face of the bolt was dry and clean...no brass slivers or anything that looked out of place
i just got a H2 buffer and i have a H1 and a standard...i have ordered a linier comp and a springco reduced power buffer spring...right now the rifle is set up with a standard buffer spring and a 2.96oz buffer...so when the rest of the stuff gets here this week the plan is to put the comp on and see if i get a bump in dwell time...it was just a thought and a cheap thing to try....if not then i plan on putting the H2 buffer in...and if that dont work i will leave the H2 in and change to the reduced power spring...if that dont work i will go to the H1 buffer and then to the standard buffer ...since i have polished the extractor i want to try that and maybe take the o-ring off and see what that does for the dents and clip the ejector spring to see if i can get the dents to go away.......if all of this fails then it will find its way to the mill and the .1065 #36 carbide reamer is going to make a bigger hole in the barrel....BUT that is the LAST resort...the barrel has a .097thou gas port in it now... and i just cant believe i can not find some happy place to make it run with both a 95gr bullets for varmints and a 120 gr bullet for deer sized game...although the 95gr could work for both as well as the 120gr bullets could work that way too...i just like to have more than one option
i do have a new bolt group, but for the life of me i cant see a thing wrong with this one...but i can toss the new one into the things to try bucket after the head space is checked ...i like redundancy ...old saying 2 is 1 and 1 is none
oh and i love the chase...trouble shooter thing i think..lol
so that is the chase plan for right now...unless you guys got something else i need to test or try....as soon as the rest of the parts and stuff gets here that is the plan
