I built a 6.5x55 off of a 30-06 savage action and am having some extraction problems. Not near hot loads at all, as you can pull the case out with a fingernail, but it will not eject. Is there a different bolt face between 30-06 and 6.5? I'm using Lapua brass which is .480 vs .4728('06 size. according to the resesearch i did), is this enought that I need to change or modify the bolt face?

Just wondering as I am building another for hunting and wondering if I should stick with North American brass that fits the 30-06 size(such as the win and fed brass i have)? for the target rifle I'll make it a single shot, but would like the hunting rifle to be a little more versatile. thanks guys.

Anyone have any ideas as to how I can remedy this? Does savage make a bolt face that will fit the dimensions of the "European" 6.5?

Thanks guys.
