Madsenshooter:  That is with factory new ammo that it will not push the 2nd round into position to be picked up when you push the bolt forward.  The 2nd and subsequent rounds seem to hang up 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch shy of where they need to be.  I've got both 180 RN and 150 Spitzer and both do the same thing.  Like you I segregate ammo to a particular rifle and only neck size them.  A trick I learned years ago for the .303 Enfield that I apply universally now to all but stuff I reload for semi's.

Butlersranger:  I checked last night and the finish on both sides of the area where the side plate fits certainly looks like the quality work we've come to expect from the Springfield craftsmen who built these rifles, unlike the half-fast work already noted on the inside of the side plate in question.

If it were easy, it wouldn't be nearly as much fun eh?
