Hey guy I got a new rifle & went to the range for a break in process. I noticed that the primers had strange looking strike marks after firing.
It is a brand new Remington 700 5R. It did it with two different types of ammo & I am concerned. I do not remember the bolt being more difficult to open after shooting. I do need to pay more attention next time to be sure. The gun seemed to shoot well.
Any help will be appreciated.
Pics next to a 308 so you can see the difference easier. Notice the circle around the firing pin indention.
