Hey everyone,
Was on here about a month ago looking for suggestions for my first rifle purchase. Ended up going with a CZ 550FS and I fired it for the first time this morning but things did not go smoothly. I cleaned it prior to shooting. Out of 20 rounds about 3 out of 5 times cycling the bolt it would not be cocked. When it happened, there would be little resistance when pushing the bolt handle down, the cocking indicator showed nothing, and the gun would not fire. I made sure the bolt was absolutely all the way rear each time, but it made no difference. They only thing that seemed to helped was moving the bolt fast and very hard, but this did not solve it completely. Does anyone know what this could be?
I thought it was maybe the PPU ammo I was running through it, but it did the same thing with a couple rounds of Norma Onyx, and also when it isn't even loaded. I sat here a bit ago after cleaning and cycled it, and sure enough its still having the issue.
