ENCORE 25'06 issues/Please help - 10/04/10
I have a 25'06 Pro Hunter Encore. A couple of issues that I am in need of help on...first, probably 20% of the time when I open the rifle after having chambered it...the extractor is no longer enganging the case. So a clening rod must be run muzzle down to eject the brass or live round. Second, accuracy sucked. 2-3 inch groups at 100 yards. Factor ammo, reloads with Sierra bullets (both 100gr and 117gr). Four different powder and multiple seating depths. My buddy and I are experienced reloaders. Haven't had this problem with my other Pro Hunter barrels ( 223, 338 Federal, 300WinMaG). Groups usually had two very close and one flyer. I suspect that flyer rounds were with rounds were the extractor wasnt functioning properly. Any ideas? Thanks.
