anyone a SKS guy? need some serious help

[CaliforniaRepublicShooter]

So I have my beloved Chinese SKS "paratrooper" that's been down. Looks like a casing neck is stuck in the barrel. Was acting up with the bolt sticking in the forward postion after firing a round. The casing doesn't eject and becomes lodged in the barrel. Anybody who can help take a look at it please pm me with prices/questions. Thanks CRS


UPDATE: so I bought the #5 extractor from harbor freight....soaked the barrel with oil...and bam! The broken casing backed out. I was so happy and felt I had succeeded until I looked in the barrel and saw ANOTHER case get piece in there!!!! 2???? Reallly?!! So now the problem is the #5 bit is to big at the thickest part and won't reach that deep into the barrel. When I attempted again I scratched the chamber a little (big deal??) So my next plan will be to grind down the #5 bit a little and see what happens. If not anyone want a f7cked up sks??? Lol

Thanks again for all the help everyone. Seems I've spend more time figuring get what's wrong with this rifle than shooting game it. Thank god my my AMD65

order some cerosafe from Brownells and get the case out.

Lube it heat barrel and knock it out with a aluminum .22 cleaning rod.

As Long as you are very careful not to foul up the chamber.

so this is a real bummer... my daughter was "helping me" the whole time or I'd of tried for casing #2.

What's causing the casing(s) to do this????

[kcstott]

well lets see

No pictures, No real information just "the cases get stuck".

Reasons

Headspace, Bad chamber dimensions, damaged chamber, Bad ammo, Grit or dirt on ammo or in chamber.

lots of reasons

[stitchnicklas]

I would have a smith' cerrosafe cast the chamber and check dimension.
If off or burred up a machinist like mr.kcscott or arbarrels can maybe help you

[tophatjones]

Did you have two separate incidents of case head separation or did you have two cases stuck in the chamber together? Are you shooting reloads? Are both stuck cases from the same lot of ammo? Brass cases? Check your headspace.

Chamber cleaning brushes will often do a good job at removing pieces of cartridge cases that stay in the chamber after a case head separation.

That's how I found out there was a broke casing...the neck came out after cleaning. I'm thinking 2 separate instances. The first time I figured it was dirty so I cleaned it and put it away. The second time I knew there was a problem.

I'm shooting wolf/tula steel..I I known I know....

I'll post pics as soon as I can take some "good" ones. Thanks again to everyone for the help /input
