All issues resolved by 'me.' I went out side and rapped off 50 rds 230 Rem UMC FMJ's yesterday, semi rapid fire, 8 yards, and all is well. I placed the first shot to the right on the white paper just to "seat everything" after I went through the gun and smoothed some things up and polished some things.
Gun ate up everything else i shot as well, (as it should) and is flawless (as it should be).
Thanks gents !
