??? ??? Surprisingly, I had to bring my rifle back to the dealer. I guess some of the hype is true. Brand new out of the box it wouldn't load, when it did it wouldn't chamber without smashing the bullet into the case. When it did chamber it wouldn't extract, and on the rare occasion that it did it would'nt eject. I cycled the action (i actually counted) over 300 times to "loosen" things up. No joy. I field stripped it and wiped it down, No joy. I detailed it and wiped down all the innards, no joy. I finnaly brought it bacvk to the store. I will say this; Wholesale sports did exchange it without question. We ran a few cartridges thru it in store just to make sure and she seems to cycle fine. So, heres hoping shell be ready for spring bear.
