'Timing of Threads' was slightly off. Barrel 'notch' for Extractor did not line-up properly and interfered with nose or claw of extractor.
I took barrel off and widened Notch with files. When barrel was re-installed, Extractor worked properly. Barrel breech seats properly in receiver. Tested bolts will close on a cartridge, but, not on a Field Gauge. |
