FN bullets hang up in M70 .416 action
Gents,
I am seeking advice from folks that have sucessfully converted a stock WW M70 action to accept FN bullets.
This seems to be a generic problem and solutions and success seems to vary - all the way to putting a new action in.
My action loads reg bullets fine but FN bullets hang up when I push the bolt forward by about 1-2 ",
taking the bolt back " a bit" things seems to align agin ,and I can load the round.
I am seeking suggestions for folks that have corrected this problem sucessfully - Appreciate any help
thnx
