Easy question: There is another thread running on Push Feed vs. CRF etc. and honestly there are too many replies to read through. However, the subject of being/not being able to close a Mauser bolt on a chambered round has come up. I have an 1895 Chilean 7x57, 2 fairly recent Ruger's, one in .223, the other in 30'06.
With any brass, S&B, Win., R-P, RWS, etc. I can slip a round in and almost effortlessly snap the extractor over the rim of said chambered round. I've been told 'you can't do that' on military Mauser's. What am I missing?
