NO4 Mk1 problem?

[Alan de Enfield]

Yes, I don't have a problem and they function the same as normal factory loads or surplus.I don't plan to shoot many hand loads through my Enfield. I like to handload for my Ross MkIII.

Sorry but I am now confused.
Can you just repeat what the problem actually is ?

I thought that it was 'extraction' but you say you don't have any problem with Reloads, Factory rounds or Surplus rounds.

To be honest Al, he is asking the ' my car won't start, what's the matter with it' question. Simply too little info to proceed further.................

I shot it no problem but when I went to extract it was very hard to extract. Chambering a round was as smooth as butter but extraction is real rough Right got that bit.......so far pointing towards perhaps what malady my MkIII had ended up being a stuffed chamber in the end with a great divet in it.
Keep in mind this is only with a live round or a spent cartridge................... Ok which ones giving the trouble I thought it was after it was fired or are we just inserting a fired round!
The gun without a cartridge is very smooth on extraction........ Yes I too found it extracts well in my rifles when they do not have a cartridge in them...........................?
A sharp extractor ? if it was pushing it to one side then you would notice resistance when the round started to feed into the chamber as your pushing it with no camming advantage like closing a bolt.
I think you may have a rough chamber if its marking dummy rounds get some 2000 grit wet & dry make a rod with a slot in it (dowel) cut a strip of S P off the wet/dry put that in the slot bit of machine oil or RP-7 whatever put the dowel in a drill and then lightly buff the chamber clean the oil & stuff from the chamber and go to the range and go again, just one thing was it checked over by a gunsmith familiar with this weapon system, posting pics can help a great deal in these matters otherwise its as post #12 Peter say's.
