Wapinschaw Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 I have two Sako Finnfire P94S rifles, a Sporter and a Range. I have a number of 9rd magazines that I use interchangeably in both rifles. They all feed without a problem in the Sporter, but now and then one will refuse to feed in the Range, the bolt will jam solidly will not go forward and pick up the round. After removing the magazine, fiddling and cursing it will eventually unjam and work perfectly for a number of magazine reloads before jamming again. I am not certain what causes or solves the problem, it just seems to clear up for a while. I have bought new magazines which work perfectly, other new mags play up and then also work perfectly for ages before they take a hissy fit and jam again. The problem is not ammunition specific, it can occur with any brand. The problem can be quite bad on some days, at other times it never manifests. Does anyone have any experience of this, or ideas how to resolve it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wapinschaw Posted June 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Sorted. Accumulations of bullet lube were causing the magazine followers to drag and stick intermittently. WD40 and cotton buds fixed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
