I just put my TC 7-08 bbl. on my Encore receiver. Thought I would work on some loads with the S.W. Precision powder I just received about a month ago. Big problem , cartridge jumps over the extractor 9 times out of 10. About half the time even without firing. If I push the extractor forward all the way before loading, it will usually lift cartridge out after closing if not fired, but then if fired , no extraction. Case is not stuck, pushes right out with rod. Anyone got an idea I might try so I don’t have to send barrel back? Got the barrel about a year ago & only fired it half a dozen times, then put 308 barrel back on. Don’t remember problems then.
Well! I got my Encore extracting problem fixed today. So simple I can’t believe nobody on this site could tell me how to fix it. The extractor spring is just a plain curved flat spring, simply remove, bend a little more arch & reinstall. Easy 2 minute job.
Well, if somebody told you how to do it you wouldn't have that great sense of accomplishment you feel right now, lol. Thanks for sharing. Glad you got it fixed
