hope this is the correct location for this post.
I recently purchased a used Ruger MK IV standard at a LGS and it fails to eject from time to time? most of the time empty cases fly out of the ejection port a couple of feet. Sometimes only a few inches, sometimes a stove pipe and sometimes the bold opens a little bit and needs me to clear it.
When I first brought the gun home I looked inside and it looked clean so I put a little bit of Tetra gun grease on the bolt and went to the range and it jammed alot.
Cleaned everything carefully but this time I lubed the bolt with a little bit of Rem Oil and it was better (see my first sentence of this post).
I am shooting Federal Auto Match LR ammo that shoots great in a friend's MK III. It is rated at 1200fps. Any suggestions???
thanks
Francis
