crosswaters Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Having problems with cycle of 2nd cartridge not entering the breach. On firing the first shot the cartridge is ejected no problem but the 2nd cartridge as it moves over towards the breach it jams on the entry into the barrel. It seems to catch on the little entry slot that has no chamfer to it.This small entry slot is for the bolt claw to grab the spent cartridge on ejection. I've complete stripped and deep cleaned the action and return spring and trigger but problem still exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Have you tried different carts. I've had a batch of hull carts that catch in my sx3 at the same point on occasion especially when dropping the first cart in the side and releasing the bolt. Catches the turned edge at the crimp deforming it, think the ends are square with little or no taper to help feeding into chamber.
