my rifle has had 1000-2000 rounds through it. I have always cleaned immediately after shooting corrosive and chamber looks good.

i have had 20 rounds in row get stuck in the chamber; different kinds of ammo; tried the same ammo in another gun and it works fine.

anyone have this problem? any ideas would be appreciated.
 
It may be a build-up of lacquer from the steel cases. Give the chamber a really good cleaning and see what happens. I'm not sure what to clean it with, perhaps a solvent like acetone if your regular gun solvent doesn't do the job.
 
My guess is laquer buildup in the chamber which needs a scrub often. The other issue could be a split case with another round lodged through it which has happend to me. Pry the bolt carrier back,lock pliers on the stuck round and tap backwards with a piece of wood. Works best with two people
 
Dont get gun oil in your barrel when the heat expands the case and burns the oil around
It gets stuck use something non metal down the barrel
To get it out to avoid scratching up your receiver with pilers
 
Do the rounds chamber and fire? Is there a broken casing in the chamber?

I have no problem chambering and firing a single round. When I fire, there is a casing in the chamber with a piece of the rim broken off where the extractor tried to grab it.

Thanks for the ideas, since I have shot almost exclusively lacquered M43, maybe its buildup.
