[QUOTE="tankgijohn72, post: 1456591, member: 77441"] I have a 26 nosler that I rebarreled with PTG headspace gauges. The factory nosler ammo fits a little tight in the chamber. I checked it multiple times with the headspace gauges and it will close on the go gauge and won't close on the no-go. Where is the issue in the tolerancing? Don't know. Could be the headspace gauges are too short, or the brass is too long. The nosler ammo had heavy bolt lifts, but no marks near as bad as what you are showing. In fact I have never seen ejector marks that bad. I had a Remington 300 WM that I had to beat the bolt handle open with a 2x4 when it was brand new shooting Winchester ammo. Remington went in and opened up the chamber and had no further issues. May want to consider having the rifle checked for headspace. If it comes back clean, let me know. [/QUOTE]
