I am building a .300 WSM on a Rem action. This is the first bolt I have worked on with a riveted extractor. While the extractor is quite functional at removing brass, it is absolutely nasty to close the bolt and engage the extractor over the round. Considerable force is required to close the bolt.
i tried lightly grinding and polishing one extractor, but this did not seem to help. I have replaced the extractor and started fresh.
Of interest is that I initially purchased two actions, and one had such a mangled extractor (or it appeared to at least) that I replaced that one also. I have not built on that action yet.
Any ideas?
