A little worried about this. When I put in the 308 bolt conversion into my axmc, all the pieces fit fine, but the bolt handle takes a good bit of oomph to go back into battery. Anybody experience this or have any suggestions? I can see a little area of rubbing next to the handle, but nothing major. Thoughts?
 
I am having the same issue with my conversion. I don't know if it's the bolt body or the magazine conversion, as I haven't given it much of a look, I was actually planning to this weekend. Is yours causing failure to feed issues?
 
I've only shot it with the 338 bolt, the conversion is new to me. When I put the safety on half safe, it goes in very easily, so I don't think it is the mag conversion. I am pretty sure it is the bolt body. I don't know if it causes any problems, as it is new to me, but running it dry I definitely need to be aggressive or it isn't going in.
 
I know this is a little old but, did anyone get any answers?
I just got my 308 conversion all together and my bolt is tight as Fu@k.
338 is like butter and the 308 needs 20x the force.
