alright... bought a .50 wulf while ago, came with a ziplock of assorted ammo and a box a full box of ammo... well had a problem with the ammo that was in the box.. rounds would get about halfway into the chamer and get stuck.. took lots of force to get it out.. like, butt stock on my chest with both hands on charge handle to extract the round..

that day i measured the casings and the front near the bullet measered 28 but towards the back the measurements went from 34-42 on the micrometer...

so today i get 2 boxes of HPs from cabelas... tried loading them and still won't chamber.. Gun was bought second hand at a trusted shop... and im sure he'll take it back.. but i like it.. well i did... i was told the gun was used in the coast guard, and i did notic that the bolt has the sand relief cuts and one hell of an extracter given the above conditions....  

anybody experience problems with ammo before?? the round gets about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way into the chamber then stops..

My suggestion is to call Bill at Alexander Arms and discuss the issue with him.  My 50 Beo works fine and I'm pretty sure he would be interested in helping solve the problem.
