I was out breaking in my barrel on my new 700 and noticed this after about 10 shots. I've never had a rifle leave this much brass residue on the bolt face as well as the side of the bolt. Is this normal or do I need to take this to a gunsmith? The line of brass on the side looks like the pressure from the chamber is blowing the brass residue backwards and I may not be getting a good seal on the chamber. Maybe I need my action trued?
Any thoughts or input would be appreciated.
Thanks!
