This Rifle won't Shoot! Diagnosing the issue(s).

I wouldn't do zip until I got a bore scope in there. Just sayin'.....

Totally agree... Just got back from dropping the rifle off at Randy the gunsmiths place, nice guy!

Brought him the target from yesterday, some fired brass, load data on what I've already tried, and 15 loaded rounds for him to use in testing. Unfortunately, Randy's borescope only goes down to 22 caliber, and mine only 20, so no joy on seeing the bore or throat area, bummer.

He's going to use one my my fired cases, and make a modified case, for use with a Hornady bullet seating gizmo, so I can use it with my other bullets as well.

wonder how many people have not figured out that the rifle is at the gunsmith right now?

hopefully, he will find something easy to fix it!

You maybe should take it to a gunsmith.

He did not post a link, it's just a photo showing the DIY modified case. You'd have to search it on your own for the actual process.

Make Your Own Chamber Length Gauge from a Fired Case « Daily Bulletin

Here is a clever DIY tool we learned about from Frank Shuster, a Forum member, who, sadly, passed away in 2015. Frank was a very knowledgeable shooter who was always willing to help others. Here is one of Frank's smart inventions. He devised a way to measure the length of a rifle's chamber using...

Interesting. Posts 195 through 197 seem to be missing.
