Hi guys, I recently got a Ruger AR in 450 Bushmaster.
I think that mine has a tight chamber.
I was shooting yesterday and had the rifle jam on a loaded round. It was about 1/2" short of going all the way in.
I cleaned the barrel and chamber squeaky clean, then tried to drop a Hornady factory 250 FTX into the chamber and it stopped about 3/8" out. I was able to push it all the way in with a finger, but it wouldn't fall out when I tipped the barrel up.
I put the rifle back together and it would feed and chamber with the spring loaded bolt.
Any thoughts on what to do now?
Send it back to Ruger? Or is it supposed to be that tight.
