Hi

Need some help! A freind has a Winchester that will fire the first round missfeed and not load the second round of the 8 round clip. If you cycle the bolt by hand it will run out the remainder of the clip in proper semiauto mode. If you load rifle with 7 it will run all out. This is 100% consistant with M2 ball ammo. He has run relaods thru the rifle with same action. Yet, when he fires 180 gr factory ammo it cycles thru the full clip of 8. Has he bent the op rod with the reloads or factory ammo? I had a friend who was knowedgable look at it and he replaced bullet guide and a couple of other parts in the clip well area to no avail. so we put back the original parts. He thought maybe the op rod? Any thoughts or suggestions??
