[QUOTE="adarms1, post: 159053, member: 530"] Your problem is not barrel or headspace related, it's a timing problem that's common to pretty much every new Remington on the market. Basically the bolt handle is sitting to far back on the bolt body and needs to be relocated forward so the extraction cams can do there job, I have two builds in the shop now that have this issue and I will have to remove the handles and retime because extraction is extremely bad. Most of the time in the smaller cartridges you never notice a problem, but get into the magnums and the high pressure rounds like the 6 Dasher or 6.5x47 Lapua and this is a problem. You could have a chamber problem, but this would be glaringly obvious on your brass. Unless Remington swaps your bolt with one with better extraction timing my guess is you could have the same problem when you get it back. [/QUOTE]
