Round not consistently extracting

mestguy182 · 10-10-2018, 11:53 AM

I sprayed the crap out of the chamber with Remoil and took a brass brush and rotated it several times in the chamber and then ran the brush through the barrel. When I insert a spent shell now it is easier to pull it out with my fingers than it was before, I also took a pick and scraped the ejector and the recess in the barrel that the ejector sits in and got some crud out of there.

No one has commented yet on the brass pictures I posted, they along with how much an unfired round wiggles in the chamber have me concerned about headspace but I'm not sure how to go about checking that.
