Well, I took out the 1851 Pietta 'Confederate' brasser .44 'sheriff' and fired 5 chambers without a hitch, came in and upon cycling the action it froze up on the 4th chamber. No hammer travel, bolt locked up no cylinder turn, what the :cursing: I had gently stoned the burrs off the insides of this like new gun, and it cycled fine and smooth, excellent timing and lock up. I realize this is probably a hand/bolt problem, but I hesitate to tackle it without knowing exactly what to do. Took the cylinder off and on, it worked fine and then locked up again. I marked that chamber and sure enough, it did it again on that chamber. It has shown a tendency to freeze on adjacent chambers, so I need advice gentlemen. Any Ideas? Thanks, George.
