What's going on here? - 05/25/16
I have owned my rifle for the past 14 years and until last fall have not had a single issue. Disclaimer i only use factory ammunition. I shot my rifle and the bolt would not open. Took it to the gunsmith and he polished the chamber. Got it back took it to the range fired 6 slow shots bolt wont open. Take it back gunsmith says the handle seperated from the the rest of the bolt welded back in place. Go to the range and it freezes again. Back to the gunsmith and he opens up the chamber a bit. Back to the range and after 3 shots bolt freezes again. I can pull up the handle up but the bolt wont come back. No trouble chambering any of the rounds from the beginning. I'm stumped and apparently so is the smith who I will mention is well respected in the Denver area. What could cause this?
