Problems with new 11 Trophy Hunter

[thermaler]

Thanks everyone for your help...I went through all the rounds and found that 13 out of the 40 I have are extremely hard to cycle. Looks like I won't be buying prvi partisan any time soon...too bad, its the cheapest around here in Los Angeles

O but that line still shows...maybe it'll go away after a few rounds

I'm a novice shooter myself--but a long symetric line down the case/bullet sounds odd--my question would be does it do it on other brands of ammo/cases as well? Are the hard-cyclings/lines happening from both hand feeds into the chamber as well as the magazine--I'm thinking there may be a problem in the process of stripping the round from the mag and going into the chamber? When you extract there's a sideways torque anyway.

One other thing--I personally never use budget ammo to break-in a new rifle--odds of irregular production stuff causing problems early on go way up IMO.
