I have some issues with a new Ruger Hawkeye FTW that I have started a thread at here

My latest thought is that it is a rough chamber, which is taking a lot of force by the bolt rotation to break. I've also tried to push in fired cases with the bolt and I can't even get it in far enough to begin to rotate.

I would appreciate any thoughts and ideas.

If you are shooting factory ammo when having that problem, you need to send it back to Ruger

Can you post some pics of the brass? If there is gouges or scrape marks, that would say a lot. Also, what’s the bolt face look like?
