RalloZ35 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Hi, I have a Marlin 915y and every few shots it wont extract the spent casing. It never did this until I bought winchester super X and a casing split today, Any body got any idea of why it wont extract? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Washi Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 When the case split it may have left a piece of the case in there. Give it a real good cleaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Yep, thats where I would start too. This happens with shotguns too (especially 3.5"). Start with a good cleaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalloZ35 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Thats what I did and I think it should be good, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 If youre still having problems afterward take it to a gunsmith and let them polish the barrel. It should help greatly. Good luck... and welcome to the forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalloZ35 Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Okay, I havnt taked it out to shoot yet but I will if I do, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalloZ35 Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I cleaned it even better and I fired 10 rounds through it and none of them failed to eject, thanks guys. I think what the problem was is that I was using Hoppes lubricating oil and my chamber was getting all gummed up and when I put bore cleaner on a patch it never made it to the chamber.
