Hello all,
Recently, I bought a CZ 550 Classic Magnum in .416 Rigby. Although I've yet to fire it, what I observe is that, upon loading three rounds into the magazine and attempting to cycle the action, the extracted round is not getting ejected. Rather, when the bolt goes fully rearwards, the extracted round gets cocked nose-upward at an upward angle, jamming between the top of the receiver and the upcoming round.
Pulling the bolt back very forcefully sometimes works, but, obviously, I need it to work all the time.
This happens with the first two rounds; the last one always gets ejected succesfully.
Has anyone experienced this? Will it get better over time by cycling the action over and over (I seem to recall someone saying the CZ's get better over time)?
My brass also gets scratched, too, but that's a minor issue right now.
Thanks in advance,
Dave
