Ants,
How well did you sil rilfe eject. Big issue for me. Seems that all anschtuz sporters, even with 54 action, have
some 64 bolt features that contributes to this problem. Not all rifles do, but at least some. There is a fix, diy,
but I need to get an extra set of parts on hand.

Hey, I really do regret if I my reply looked as if I was being difficult. I don't blame
you if you took it that way after seeing my post in print. My excuse is that
I love the accuracy but sour that I have to deal with this issue.

Then again,
with being a gun owner it would serve me better if I looked at gunsmithing
in a more positive light. Having said that, it's a good thing to report that your
rifle is not one of those that has an issue. I bought mine in June of this year.
Not selling it. Gonna get the job done. Moan and groan but still be happy
in the end.
