Ejection problem

Post by Evelio Mc Donald »

At our range, we have to pick up all brass, so we all barely cicle the bolt so the case stays in the chamber, then we grab it and throw in the container provided at each stand. Actually all you have to do is cicle the bolt harder so the case will jump out, you may also have a worn out extractor. A better solution would be to rotate the scope 90 degrees and use the windage knob for elevation.

The rifle is less than a year old. Its only had about 1500 rds shot through it and its always done it. I can't claim it doesn't eject because it does so every time, straight up into the bottom of the scope. Sometimes they kick out the left side.

I recently lowered the scope to put more cheek pressure on the stock and crappy ejection got worse. I was hoping lowering would help steady the rifle, but I get crampy.

I might try BKL rings and get the scope way up there.

Does this mean you won't be offering it as an option?
