All, any insight or thoughts would be much appreciated.
I have a .308 SPS tactical that I bought 8 or 9 years ago. I bought as a gun I wouldn’t mine banging around a bit and it eventually became one of my favorite guns. I found early on that it likes the Hornady AMAX 168 Match. Every round through it minus 1/2 a box has been that round. With that being said probably talking 1 box a season so call it 200 rounds in high side through it.
Fast forward to this season. MLD doe hunts in October, I noticed the bolt was rather hard to open and also it spit 2 back to back primers. I chalked this up to bad box of the 168 matches. Put gun up and next trip brought another box of the match and 2 shots in on range same tightness.
I attached picture of 3 casings. All have a mark on them I tried to position about 12:” o’clock. Any thoughts on what this may be?
Is there something I can DIY fix?
Does primer impact from pin look deeper than normal?
Thank you in advance,
Leddy
