Looks like 2x fired brasscan someone clarify how a "double ejector" mark happens? never witness one before.. thanks..
Those primers look rough too.

CA uses two ejectors.can someone clarify how a "double ejector" mark happens? never witness one before.. thanks..
Not sure on the brass growth. Didn’t measure before firing as I was just loading a few quick to look for pressure and velocity.I’ve seen tight/short chambers pressure up early and result in ejector marks too. Call them. Not email. IME, emails sent to companies in the firearm industry are about 50/50 at best for a response. They should be quite used to this stuff by now. If, by chance you could come up with a .006-.008” variance go/no go set and give it a try, that would give you valuable info. Or at least a field gauge. How much is your brass growing on fired brass?
$700-800 ish. About $400 for a good blank and about the same amount to install and cut chamber.How much of an issue would it be to get a different barrel and send it to the gunsmith to change caliber?
That might be the best option anyways. This site has me thinking smaller anyways and my shoulder ain’t getting any better. Only shoot at elk to 400 anyways.$700-800 ish. About $400 for a good blank and about the same amount to install and cut chamber.
Don’t let them win! Make them fix it. Then sell it, and buy what you want.That might be the best option anyways. This site has me thinking smaller anyways and my shoulder ain’t getting any better. Only shoot at elk to 400 anyways.
I already modified the stock with an arca rail and put a dead air xeno brake on the barrel. Not sure what the resale value would be.Don’t let them win! Make them fix it. Then sell it, and buy what you want.
It’s got less than 75 rounds down it and I followed their break in with tons of cleaning.Clean the crap out of it.
Rest assured, break in/cleaning didn’t cause your problem.The cases never saw lube and I used a bore guide to clean and didn’t notice anything in there in terms of oil. I can check again but really don’t want to have to buy another box of 80 dollar ammo to check if it changes anything after yet another thorough cleaning.
My Christensen 28 Nos would leave pretty pronounced ejector marks at safe pressure.CA uses two ejectors.
I’ve also heard, and on the theoretical it makes sense, that the two ejectors also can show pressure earlier.
You need the tools to measure to diagnose anything. The ejector marks are common on Christensens, mine did it on every piece of brass. Are you sure you got bolt lift? Because typically at the point of bolt lift you get swipe that will cut the edges of those ejector marks off. It also looks to me like excessive headspace, but it wouldn't surprise me if the tail end of the chamber was tight from a worn reamer.Not sure on the brass growth.
