[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1524332, member: 77249"] My first question as to the mark on the cases. With the marks on the cases not in the exact same place, It could be more than one problem to deal with. Are You Running The Cases Through The Magazine When Shooting Them? Just a thought since the scratches are in different locations on the case. There be a bad burr on the magazine lip causing the scratch or dent on the case. Have you reached into the ejection port and put your finger on the case, Then carefully opening the action, Till the case clears the chamber and then carefully remove it. I have seen firearms with burrs in the ejection ports and magazines that made scratches and dents that was not caused by the chamber. As a Police Armor I had to a lot of work on new issues of service pistols to get them to function properly. My feeling was, If I would not feel secure taking the gun and going to the field and carry it, I did not want it to leave the range. I had one new pistol I had to smooth the magazine lips to get the to load properly. Looked like the lips on the magazine had been cut with a dull axe. Like 21 pistols with 3 mags. each was quite a job to cure. As for the shells not wanting to release and come out of the chamber. I have read where the chamber of a hammer forged barrel has the Chamber Hammer Forged as the barrel is rifled, By moving the mandrel back during the process. I guess when they install it on the action, Check it with gauges and the headspace is within specs. They may never run a finish reamer in to set final headspace. Retuning the Rifle to Remington is what I would suggest. If you put an new TRIGGER in the rifle I would put the original back in if you return it. I have heard of JEWEL triggers not making it back on the return job. GOOD LUCK ON FINDING THE CAUSE AND A SAFE DEPENDABLE CURE FOR THE PROBLEM. [/QUOTE]
