So Gunny Lee repaired my stock and my rifle is back together and I had it out at the 100 yard line last week and I’m having the same issue as before- the second round falls out of the rifle when I operate the bolt to eject the first spent casing. It happens every single time.
It’s a Supergrade .243 Win
with a hinged floor plate. The manual says the capacity is 5. I can get 3 loaded, and a fourth if I force it down, but the the bolt won’t close at all. So with 3 rounds in the magazine, close the bolt, fire, eject, and the next round falls out. I put it back in, cycle, fire, cycle, fire the third round, no problem.
I thought maybe the follower spring might be weak. I opened it a bit but that didn’t help.
I’ve had a number of bolt action rifles but this is a new one to me. What gives?
