My issue is this. I have a mosin Nagant that I am having trouble closing on cartridges. I looked at a number of things that may have bveen the cause and now I have identified the issue. Great you say what do you need us for? Well please take a look at the picture below.
So the issue is the bolt head rim that surrounds the cartridge is slightly bent inwards towards where the rounds is held. On the very opposite side of the extractor the walls of the bolt head rim have been skewed slightly inwards. You maybe able to see it better in this picture.
Can anyone help explain how I could bend them out again to eliminate the issue?
