Howdy all,
I went out to shoot my new Mosin today, and for some reason the bolt would not close when trying to chamber a round. It will open and close just fine without a round. Also, when my dad and I were trying to figure it out, he took the bullet and put it down the barrel via the muzzle, and the bullet and case, up to the shoulder, fit easily into the barrel. (hopefully, that made sense). Third, when does the extractor engage the rim? If it is right when your being to chamber a round, then that isn't happening either., although when I took the bolt out, I could slip a round underthe extractor and it would hold it nicely. Any suggestions??
