    Rifle Off to Factory................

    This last time gun was at Gunsmith, checked out the Headspace, over 1/4 "off, that seems to be the main reason, I'm having trouble extracting the spent shell. I'm also getting expansion of the case, about 1/4 " above primer, looks like a ring, resizing die takes care of it during reloads. Could be barrel was not threaded in enough or headspace was machine wrong.

    Maybe new gun, or Barrel, I'll keep all informed, and get more details.

    I know they'll take care of it, just seems it been a never ending story with this gun.

    Yet, it shoots like a Tack driver.........
