Charging handle hard to pull sometimes?
I had this happen to me thrice in the past few range sessions.
I would finish a string of fire and come time to clear the chamber I would find the charging handle impossible to pull back.
First time it happened I checked to see if the bolt was fully seated and simply fired off the chambered round. Bullet impact same as previous rounds, shot sounded and felt the same, empty shell extracted and ejected normally.
Second and 3rd time it happened I persisted in trying to clear the chamber and had to resort to lightly mortaring the rifle on the deck to eject the chambered round.
Rifle and action operate normally before and after this happens. No FTFs, FTEs.
It has occurred about once per range session of about a hundred to 150 rounds per session.
Rifle including barrel is cleaned after every range session or two max.
Ammo is a mix of 55gr reloads and surplus M193. Have not been able to isolate it to any particular ammo.
Rifle has a 12.5" White Oak 1:7 twist stainless steel barrel with Wylde chamber, Spikes Tactical BCG with hard chromed bolt, standard carbine spring, and 9mm buffer.
Last time it happened I was running suppressed, not sure if I had the suppressor on the first two times it happened.
