    Help! 110 Ultralite bolt face contacting action.

    Hi I'm new to the forum. Thanks for having me. Let me know what can be done with my action. Thanks

    So I have a brand new 110 ultralite and I don't mind the action. When working the bolt back, the rear of the bolt face lug will catch the action not allowing it to go all the way back. In turn it does not feed another round into the chamber. The bolt guide lug does not line up with the bolt face lug making the lip that catches the action. The bolt guide lug never catches the action.
    Can I take it all apart and cut a bevel on the lug with a sharpening stone maybe? It wouldn't take much but I don't know. My fear is working the bolt in the heat of the moment and pulling the trigger for a follow up shot and hearing nothing but a click...

    Let me know how you guys fix this and thanks for your time!

    I also helps to file a bevel on the edge of the race way opening. Sometimes the edge is left very square and sharp. A bevel on both parts where they contact will eliminate the abrupt hang up, and a swiss file will do the job nicely.

    I figured some light filing would cure it but wanted to ask the experts first.
    Thanks.

    On a side note the fit and finish look pretty good on your rifle. I assume it is a short magnum?

    Keep you angle low when you file or hone.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
