Rell, I hate to say this but you chose the wrong rifle platform for that build. 85 are notorious for ejection and some feeding problems. A good competent smith should be able to fix the problem or realise it is beyond them and so advise.

9.3X57 is on the nail with the ejection problem with brass hitting the scope. I do not know if this can be rectified. If it can't then the smith should have told you this. I agree with your intended actions.




Yup.

I was about to buy a left hand 85 and did the interweb reviews thing on the action. Have no interest in it. It isn't a true controlled round feed action which frankly, means little to me as the worst jam I've ever had was a loaded round that fell into the chamber of a 98 and the orignal extactor jammed it in and of course, being a "pure" 98 would not snap over.

The 85 is more or less a pushfeed 75 with the bottom of the bolt face milled off.

The big problem is that the ejector is located at the bottom of the bolt face....which makes no sense if you want side ejection to occur. I've read so many problems with these actions I assumed the OP's was one more problem action. His last post indicates he may have dodged the common problems. That is good. Some seem to work just fine. Hopefully his is a winner and he can get the issue sorted out with the g-smith.
