6.5 PRC issues

[Evans Gunsmithing]

looks like your chamber was cut with a blunt reamer. Clean throat area and then look at the throat with your bore scope. Were the lands are cut by the reamer should be clean cut with no burrs or goring. If the reamer is not cutting that area like it should there will be flanges in the throat that will scrape the bearing surface of the bullet. This will cause severe copper and carbon deposits. Hope this helps.

Yes I mentioned that in earlier posts

Have you tried calling them and explaining your problem? Need to speak to the shop foreman or production engineer.

OP. It has been 6 days now since you posted. You must have a lot more patience than most of us. First day you should have clean the **** out of the throat area down to bare metal, and take new pics with the borescope for us to examine. That's Step 1. If it looks normal, shoot it again. If it looks bad, send it back to CA.

Some weapons just require more bullets (and longer) to break in.
Keep cleaning and filming.

Thanks for the pictures.

Looks like every round was over pressured

 

[Lapuatom]

He said they are factory???

Those cases were subjected to MORE THAN ONE over pressure events!

CA feels the need to put dual plungers

With 6 kids and sports I don't have time to wipe my own a** lol. But I think I have a few hours today to put a good cleaning on it

That's as far as I got. Probably not clean enough right??

 

[SteveBurton]

That looks a million times better than your first pics. I would bet your issues would not appear if you shot it now. If you have time to clean it some more, I would just to try to get it as clean as possible. If you have the ability to scope it after every 5 shots or so, you could track how fast it gets dirty.
Let us know how it shoots.

I had a throat problem where Pac Nor chambered a 330 DAK. It never shot well with anything I used. Took it to a gunsmith whose first move was to clean it and bore scope it so he could see what was going on. Saw there was galling in the throat. Rechambered it and it shoots everything well including our copper bullets (<=0.5 MOA). Said likely it was a chip that didn't clear properly during the original chambering.
