I just purchased an 1884 Springfield trapdoor. I took it to a gunsmith and was told she was in good shape. My question/concern: I purchased some 45-70 ammo from Black Dawg (bpc 45-70), the cartridge went in nice and smooth and gun shot great, but the spent cartridge got stuck in the chamber...appears to have swollen the brass.....any ideas what happened??
I knocked out the spent cartridge with a cleaning rod...it was tight.
Thanks
