Good morning all.
Received a used Remington 770 for Christmas from a friend of a friend. He said he fired less then 20 rounds thru it and it's in really good shape so it's possible. We did shoot a few rounds he had in pocket I am clueless as what they were with no problem.
So I went out and bought a box of 150 grain Rem Core-Lokt and tried to shoot some.
Well the first round got stuck pretty tight, so we removed it and the second did the same. I do load and have some new brass, dies and all and am wondering what the problem could be.
It was very cold when we went shooting so is it possible some oil may have stuck the brass to the chamber?
I will be doing a good cleaning the next few days and was looking for some thoughts? I miked the new brass, brass that was stuck and the loaded ammo and there was virtually no difference.
