Range guy told me about another exciting thing that happened this past weekend.
Guy was shooting a bold action rifle.
Had a little problem opening the bolt.
But it got better the more he shot.
He said it was factory ammo he got a while ago.
No idea how long he's owned the rifle.
I got two boxes, One that he fired and a unfired box.
Plan on pulling the heads and checking what's going on with the unfired box.

We're thinking the barrel was badly rusted causing high pressure.
The more he shot, the clearer the barrel got.
Either the guy didn't know better, or he had more guts that I do.
He fired all 20 rounds from the box.
Good thing it didn't blow.
