Mauser "2-digit"?

DavidJayUden · 12-15-2013, 09:15 AM

Good commercial ammo with brass cases, not steel? .30 Mauser ammo, not .30 Tokerov?
I'm just wondering if the chamber, rather than being worn, is pitted from rust. Sometimes a light bit of polishing may be in order.
It just seems odd that a bore and chamber could be so worn as to create ejection problems. Usually if anything is that worn it is the rifling around the muzzle, caused by excessive cleaning from the muzzle end with steel cleaning rods. And only on weapons that show a lot of wear from years of use.
Just thinkng aloud.
