Curious problem, cheap ammo works, good ammo is dificult… am I correct in my caracterization?
Turns out there was 2 ammunitions giving me the most problems, Hornady Match OTM W/C and Magtech ammo, since my last post I've been to the range twice shooting Federal power shok and Fusion with 0 problems, also shot Vital shok copper very accurate, I'm gonna stick with Federal copper for all my hunting needs

Well in case anyone is interested, I went to the range today with some cheap federal ammo and to my supprise everything cycled perfectly, this is the first time, I'm not going to say it was the ammo until I go to the range a couple more times without any problems, looks like you guys could be right, I hope so, I love that rifle, I was shooting less than 1 inch at 100 yards, thanks for your input, I was almost ready to give up and move on

Im useing factory ammo, I've tried 4 different brands all with the same results, I'm sure the problem is with the rifle, I haven't shot it very much but when I do there's always a problem, my son used it to shoot his elk this year, after he shot he chambered another round but didn't need to shoot again, when he went to un chamber the gun he told me the bolt was stuck and the safety was stuck in half position, he told me he had to force the safety forward with alot of pressure and when he did that the gun fired, luckily the gun was pointed in the air and not his hunting buddy, I've read other stories of stuck bolts and safeties stuck in half positions, I think I don't know enough about rifles and shooting to deal with this, I'm going to take it to a gun smith, Thanks for the replies
