[QUOTE="7mmTikkaShooter, post: 2625919, member: 92915"] I think it would depend on the mount of jam and the amount of neck tension. Obviously until the jam happens the chambering of the round would be free to rotate with the bolt throw. It may or may not depending on how aggressive you operate the bolt, how slick the bolt face may be, etc. Take a round and make a sharpie mark on one side. Watch to see if it rotates when you operate the bolt. Once the jam would happen though, it’s very unlikely to rotate. The case neck tension will probably be greater than the surface friction of the bolt face and case head. It’s possible that with enough jam and little to no neck tension that the bolt face could keep turning the brass, but seems like a very unique scenario. [/QUOTE]
