I have a Model 10 BA Stealth that was originally chambered in 6.5 Creedmore. I replaced the original barrel with another factory 6.5 CM without any problems. Now I have put on a new 6BRX barrel from Xcaliber. The rifle shoots wonderfully but doesn’t function well. It isn’t ejecting properly and I can’t seem to fix it.
After firing a shot I pull the bolt back and the case extracts. As I continue to pull the bolt back the case is pinned to the right side of the receiver by the ejector as it probably should be. But then it seems to drop off the extractor before it can eject. The case ends up laying on top of the next round in the magazine.
The extractor is a loaner from another of my Savages, a 6.5x47 Lapua. The original extractor had a piece break off.
So what do I do to get this baby to eject properly?
