    Not suggesting anything here since I haven't handled the rifle myself, but have you run it with a heavier buffer? What buffer are you currently using?

    Just like the other thread, this may very well be a tight chamber.

    ST-T2 Buffer

    Thanks all, I saw some chatter marks in the chamber. I mentioned this to one of the DS A gunsmiths, they are just going to replace the barrel.

    Good luck. After you get tired of dicking around with their stuff, get a real barrel.

    Have them replace it, then sell it as new to someone who will buy it (as it will be new), and purchase a replacement of good quality.

    Chatter marks in chamber, several posts up. Shitty barrel is shitty.

    Chatter marks aren't the barrels fault, most likely the person that cut the chamber didn't bother to blow out the chips or didn't use enough cutting fluid for a smooth cut.

    I'm thinking you could polish the chamber and you wouldn't have a problem, though this might be a PITA.

    How badly offset is the extractor groove of the fired case?


    does the fired case fall out of the chamber afterwards or do you have to pry it out?

    IG,

    Could a flex hone be used to smooth out the chamber ?

    It's not that simple. It has to do primarily with the leade. This issue has been discussed many times. The solution is to get a real barrel chambered for 5.56.
