I'm having a bit of trouble with the bolt on my Styer manlicher M2 .270.
The rifle has become temperamental in the fact that once I have fired a shot the bolt sometimes will not open to extract the cartridge and cycle the next. It requires a forcefull 'tap' with the palm of my hand to get the bolt to open. This is probably happening 50% of the time and has only just started happening.
To to help narrow down the problem, it works fully operationally when loading the rifle and cycling the first cartridge in. Only after a shot does the problem occur.
Any ideas on the issue?
Cheers.
