Hey all,
Anyone have any experience with the 802 plinkster from mossberg? Its the bolt-action version of the 702. I owned a 702 for years until I gifted it to a friend for his first rifle. Finally got around to picking this one up and I got a set of tech-sights (the peep/front post irons) for it.
Accuracy was very acceptable, my best groups going under 1.5moa from the prone position, which is about as good as I can do
Put about 600 rounds through it yesterday, the first 300 rounds I had 3 failures to extract, but the next 300 it happened a good 20 times, mostly in rapid bolt work. I cleaned the bolt a bit but it continued to happen, to my annoyance.
Anyone know what the issue might be?
