OT Mauser K98k extraction problem

Thanks for the suggestions. Looking at the chamber with a flashlight, it looks smooth and I can't see any signs of rust. I think this may be a headspace problem. I don't know of anyone locally who has the equipment to check headspace. Is there a way I can do this? I've been wanting a good shooter-grade Mauser and may just buy one of the Yugo 98k reworks or an M48.

As far as the Turkish ammo, other than the extraction problem, it shoots great, and at the prices it is selling for, I think I'll stock up.
