  • Bolt Action stuck, How can i release it?

    I have a Remington .223 bolt action rifle, i was dry firing it it and also cycling spent(empty) .223 casings. I closed the bolt, it felt a bit tight closing it, fired and pulled the bolt lever up and tried to extract the casing, but the bolt wont move back. I can only move the bolt lever up and down. I have tried a bit of elbow grease but i still cant pull it back. The rifle is in mint condition, no rust or corrosion, i cycled a few casings before it got stuck.I cant see why the bolt wont release at all.

    Can anyone maybe give advice, hints, or a solution.

    Anything would be appreciated.
