I thoroughly stripped the bolt and cleaned and lubed it.

So far I have only single fed it, up till now, have never loaded five in the mag well yet.

But I will try and clean again the area in the recess and see if that makes a difference.

This rifle was extremely dirty and crusty when I got it. I bought it from SOG a few months back when they were selling them. Very happy with what I got, a really nice piece, but I think it may be a War survivor and has not been cleaned since then. until I got it.

Thanks again Bob
