If they didn’t find matching bolt they offered a new rifle and to take care of paperwork.
Owner came and saw me and was clearly pissed about what happened.
As a final gesture they gave me couple of boxes of ammo.
Happy Chappy now.

How olds the rifle mate? if might just be a bit of brass stuck behind the ejector stopping it from working right.

Absolutely brand new. Smith replaced the ejector and boom, works perfectly.
