Sako Quad feeding-problems

[kedbeck]

I have some feeding issues with my quad.
When chambering a round, the rim won't slide in under the extractor causing the bullet to enter the barrel at the wrong angle. Shaving off some lead.
It seems there's too much spring-pressure on the extractor. When trying w/o a spring, it feeds just fine. I've also tried to cut a spring, but by the time it start feeding ok there's not enough tension to extract the round. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I'm getting nowhere with this.
I've tried different extractor-springs to see if a different tension would solve the problem. No luck.

Then I tried modifying the extractor itself and when I finally got the rounds to feed ok, the gap between the boltface and the extractorclaw was too big for the extraction to work....

So now I need to buy a new extractor just to be back on square one.

No, I live in Sweden so I guess Sako Sweden or whatever it's called is the next step.

Just enoys me that I can't figure out whats wrong or how to fix it =/
