Default RE: Trouble closing bolt

Sounds like a headspace issue. Are these fireformed in that rifle your trying to bolt? Its definately not unheard of for dies to be off a tad also.

Here is what I would do. Hopefully you know a good gunsmith. Have him check the headspace or loan you a no go gauge. If all checks out well, have the dies sent back to whoever. Usually under warranty.
