I have heard about people going as far as having to kick the bolt open at times. The only things I can think of to try are: Clean the chamber really well may have baked on cosmo in it. If shooting old wolf maybe built up lacquer. Try diffrent ammo. Bad Ammo? I am no expert so maybe some one else has something to offer?? Is there any deforming of the cases? |
| I have a very ammo picky M38 as well. I expirenced the same problems as you. I took a drill and shotgun bore brush (.410) and ran it down the chamber area. Still, didnt do it. So, I just stick to the NON-corrosive BRASS cased ammo, like the Bosnian Hotshot, it feeds it fine and loves it. Although, after firing 20 rounds my shoulder is very sore. |
| You might try the drill motor and shotgun brush (20ga perhaps) along with some brake cleaner or hit it with some 400 then 600 grit sandpaper. I did this to my M44 and 91/30 before I took them out for the first time and I don't have any sticking problems with either. |
Big plus one on this,however if it only happens with the laquer cases and not brass case stuff,it is probably not headspace.Being that they headspace off the rim,different makes of ammo will have different thickness of rims which will affect how the bolt opens after it is fired. |
