I called Remington and talk to Tom in the service and explained my problem new just what I was talking about leads me to believe they know about this and he said send the gun back and they will replace the magazine box.I took it to the shop thatI bought it and they boxed it and shipped it for free.
Once again I want to thank you for your advise I will really like that rifle more now that I'm not going to have to worry if I will be able to make the second shot if I need to.

I called Remington and they new just what I was talking about and asked me to send it back and they would put a new magazine box in the gun and it would stop the problem so I sure I'm not the only one with this happening to so I went to the dealer and they shiped it off for free. Now I will not have to worry if I will be able to make that 2nd shot if needed

I was using factory 150gr. Winchester Power Point ammo. It chronographed 3200fps. I am starting to reload for it. I am going to reload some Berger 150gr. VLD bullets. My gun really likes the 150gr. bullets. I deer and elk hunt with the rifle so I think it is a good combo that will do the job.

I'm not a reloader yet. I own my own business and I work late hours after my 10 at the office so between the kids dog and wife working on restoring my CJ5. My wife would leave meif I spent anymore time in my garage and my home office. I's my 50th birthday onopening weekend of antelope in Wyoming and deer season in Calif she want to have a huge party wait until I drop that bomb on her that I won't be home.....WOW.I would like to learn I have read that hand loads are most accurate is that true?

you know i have a weatherby vangaurd in 270 wsm and it has feeding and ejection problems to, when i work the bolt slowly it never kicks the shell out properly and sometimes it kicks the shell into a weird position. i managed to fix it by hand jewelling the bolt, a few part of the internal clip itself and the chamber (but i didnt polish it much) it still has the problem sometimes but its rare now. when my older brother (i am using his account now) know alot about this stuff, he says it might be the delta L problem, because of the heavy shoulder and poor standarizations between the saami and the c.i.p. neither of the 2 truely know the maximum pressure or the maximum presure is different between the two. so when you try to eject the casing with the different shoulder angle, it could eject funny and/or effect the way the next bullet aligns with the chamber. ps the shoulder should be 35 degrees and the case length should be 2.1 inches, now i am now sure what the proper length and angle of the shoulder of a fired 270 wsm should be but i found that the shoulder is about 35.6 degrees and the case is 2.2 inches after being fired. so that could be the problem. hope this helps

Let us know how the outcome is when and how they fixed the problem afteryou recieve your rifle back from Remington. I was worried if I sent mine back that they would of mess around with my trigger pull. Had my buddy adjusted to a 2 pound trigger pull.
