Lee Enfield No. 2 Trainer Need HELP !

[jmoore]

Thanks for the suggestion ! I took a closer look at the chamber and discovered a small dent in the chamber throat at the 5 o'clock position. Looks like the bullet clears the dent but the case won't . Any suggestions on a quick fix ? Thanks again !

It COULD be reamed out but that's not the ideal solution. I have something called a chamber ironing tool which pushes the metal back without removing any meat. I got it years ago from Brownell's. Very handy esp. if you like old .22s.

Let me see if I can find a current link...

ETA: Well that was easy! A rare instance of a search engine producing the exact link needed on the first go.

ETA: BTW, one nice feature not mentioned is the small flat along one side of the tool that enables you to insert the iron as deep as it needs to go on the undamaged portion of the chamber mouth. Then twist. It may take a few repititions but there's very little danger of doing damage when using the supplied handle. No hammers required! And usually no other post-ironing burr clean-up required, unless the damage was substantial.
