Anschutz 54 Model 1411 Single Extractor

I am in the camp of the spring/plunger hole needing cleaned. I would check the chamber mouth for a burr. Also remember Facebook is against us...
 
I could not withstand so many poor ejections and repositioning so I have disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled three times. I found some powder but not a lot.The first time I put it back together everything sprung apart and I had to find it. The second time it went together and clicked in place with too much gap from the ejector to the bolt. The third time was the same. I have been assembling with the spring to ejector adapter positioned as shown. Is there a way to adjust the Gap so the ejector is clamping the shell rim? Should I rotate the adapter 90° from the attached image?

I replied to your PM send me an email. the angle of the tip of the claw needs to be angled downward. as you see in your picture it is pushing against the side of the case it should be pushing down on the rim. as you can see how easily the rim can jump the bolt face cut and fall off the claw. this why they added the shell holder to solve this problem if the claw was not a perfect fit after assembly.

Make sure the rear of the chamber doen not have a burr on it .
What Ggmac said or a dent from the firing pin hitting the end of the chamber, put black marker on the case and inspect it after extracting and if there is a problem it will show where the black marker is removed.
 
A huge shoutout to Hi-NV Shooter for helping with new parts and instructions. I replaced the extractor, adapter, and spring. I believe the new spring and increased clamping force was the major fix, and a good cleaning can never hurt.

I tried using a black marker as recommend by wk4036 to check the chamber for burrs as recommended by Ggmac, and the results were inconclusive. The marker and brass always have very small drag marks, but the orientation with the firing pin was never the same. I think the marks were a normal part of the sliding fit.

Also, the first ten rounds (RWS standard velocity) were disastrous. It started with several empties laying the chamber, and I had two misfires for the first time ever. I was nervous for a moment, but a friend and I each shot 100 rounds with no issues. For now, I have to say problem solved!

Thanks again.

Glad the problem is fixed, I started wondering since I had not heard back from you on what happened with the new parts.

As Tim stated, not really difficult I do suggest using a clear plastic bag big enough to fit the bolt and your hands to keep anything from flying into never-never land. reassembly is very easy.

This is some of the most simplistic and brilliant advice I have ever read! Can be used on so many applications outside of firearms as well!!!
