.308 CTR ejection
Wanted to ask a quick question for people who have more experience with these guns. Just picked up a CTR in .308 after trading in a savage. It has a SWFA SS 3-15×42 on it and I have no idea how it shoots yet. I managed to get a rough zero in my back yard and ran 15 or so rounds through it just to get use to the recoil and trigger. I noticed that when I ran the bolt fast the case wouldn't eject from the gun. The case comes free from the chamber but lands back inside the action. When I run the bolt slow it ejects just fine. Is this a Tikka quirk? I tend to run the bolt fairly fast so is there anything I should be doing differently?

Is it possible the case is hitting the windage turret and bouncing back into the port?

That was my first thought so I tried it with an empty case and watched closely. I don't think that's the problem, but I do plan to take the turret off and try it.
