well i inherited off my uncle and it was in bad condition! i have slowly been finding bits that he never cleaned, the main action etc but until this happened a had never heard of rust in the barrels. they look clean to me but i read somewhere that it can be hard to tell if there is crud built up! i have just been out to get some steel wool as wire brush in my cleaning kit doesnt seem to do alot!

Have tried 3 different types of cartridges. 2 of which i have been using for last few years with no problem. only other thing i have found online is that it could be a build up of **** and rust in the barrel and to use some wire wool and polish? Any thoughts on this?

thats what i first thought as i did. but yesterday i took out a box of what i always used to shoot with and had same problem.

its pritty close to flush and just jamed in the barrel. unless you have pliers you cant get it out. and when you do get it out you can see the brass marked. whereas on the bottom cartridge there is no marks!

not sure its that as the ejector doesnt move! only reason i know the ejector works is from firing it with no cartridges in. the ejector pops out fine then. its asthough the brass expands and then cartridge get jamed in barrel.

Just wondering if anyone could help. I have a winchester over under which has all been fine for years but suddenly its started not ejecting used cartridge out of the top barrel. The thing is the ejector seems to work but the cartridge jams in and need pliers to get it out. When putting a full cartridge in its all normal and comes out fine its just once its been fired. Any ideas what this could be and what i can do to get it sorted? Thanks in advance. Ed
