Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing Sticky chamber???

Yeah Dan I know. This discussion was so far away from the “whole picture” of extraction it wasn’t worth the effort to go through the rest of it.

Thanks to all who replied. I think SHERM 61 was on the money with his solution. I guess I failed to mention that I was using Lee collet neck sizing dies, I've used them for a long time, and I frequently check the case length, and trim when necessary. I full length resized the same cases and had no trouble at all with the extraction. My theory is the cases were swelling some at the case head, which the neck die wouldn't touch, and with the camming power of the bolt, I couldn't feel much resistance when I chambered a round. Anyhow the problem is solved.

Thanks
