| I'd recently built a 6.5. I had big trouble with extracting bullets and didn't know if my piston system from Adams would cycle the bolt?! I called alexander and they told me to shoot it and c. They offered to fix if I sent upper but who wants to do that? Somethin about the bolts they got weren't machined right. Anyway I shot it and it's the baddest ass rifle I ever built no lie I'll post pics later . But I was wondering if I could somehow get a new bolt in exchange for my old whereas it still has problems if tryin to Manuel extract?! |

Properly sized brass cases should fit the chamber "tight". Check to see if the projectile is engaging the rifling, it shouldn't, you will have to use your finger to keep the case from dragging on the locking lugs. A good hard pull to start extraction is normal. "Loose" chambering leads to poor accuracy and broken cases. |

He said that on a Grendel, slight scrubbing on the lands is entirely normal and does not cause any problems. He said it can be expected because of the multiple-angle throat that the Grendel utilizes. |

Like I said shot like a dream so you may be right but the guy told me about the bolts that weren't machined right. So shoot good or not I'd like to exchange for a new or just order another that has been checked
