I'm still learning rifles and shooting longer ranges, so forgive me if this question comes off as ignorant.
I currently own 2 Browning X bolt rifles (standard 7mm08 and Pro 300 WM) and I'm having issues periodically with ejecting after shooting. I shoot factory ammo and have noticed after certain boxes, I can get the bolt up, but not be able to pull it back to eject without using a ton of force. Is this due to an issue on the rifles or is it just an issue around certain ammo and casing expansion in the chamber? I put the aftermarket trigger spring in both, so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the bolt release button having issues and locking up?
Any suggestions would be helpful as I enjoy the rifles, but am nervous about follow up shots in the field.
