    My last guess would be the ejector on the bolt is sticking out too far and tilting the round up.

    Don't worry if plan "A" fails, there are still 25 other letters in the alphabet.

    Looking for S/A bayonets s/n 922033 & 1045220

    I've never encountered this problem and it is already driving me nuts.

    Heres my guess. Either bullet guide worn out of spec or bent ear on the follower rod or bent follower rod.

    I am covering the bases

    I had a rifle that did what Tim is describing. Could not figure it out everything looked to be inspec. Gave up and put it back in the safe.
    Got it out one day and looked it over and found one ear on the follower rod was bent. I replaced it and it ran like a champ

    I was just teasing.I had a similar problem,but after I got rid of the post war bullet Guide My problem went away.It also displayed the famous,"can't put a full clip in syndrome",which Tim's did not.so wear is a good guess.
