Ammo issues with my yugoslav 7.62 x 39 59/66 Zastava

[nebraska_farmer]

I bought a yugoslav 7.62 x 39 59/66 Zastava ,after cleaning I found my ammunation will not fully chamber about 1/16 inch , when the round is removed the bolt fully closes, the ammunation is 7.62 x 39 mm 122 gr fmj steel case tulamo , any ideas??

Get a mic and measure the rounds and then look up the max overall length of m43s

1. Were you loading from a mag?
B. Are you 100% sure there are no chamber/barrel obstructions?
III. Is your extractor moving enough to snap around the cartridge rim?
