My new rifle has a little roughness in the action. Sometimes fails to chamber. Kinda weird.
any ideas.

Yes, yes, No, No. I would have gladly prepared the rifle had I known….wonder if this stuff was in the owners manual."My new rifle"
This is the clue. Now the questions: Did you clean and re-lube the working parts? Did you grease the back of the locking lugs where they contact the recesses? Did you lube the cocking ramp?
Not trying to be snorty but any new rifle can be a bit 'hitchy' until it's had some break in.
Thank you. I tap the mag to seat the rounds but will pay closer attention to this…it could very well be this…Double and triple check each round is properly seated in the mag. All the way down and all the way to the rear. Work the bolt on several full to empty mags. See if the fail to feed is repeated.
Omg. That is a poor reflection on Ruger. I will have to see what could be rough on mine. Thanks for responding!I have the same rifle, my bolt was like that when new, I cleaned and lube but still rough, after inspecting the bolt it had a few burrs and rough spots from machining after polishing those off it is smooooth....
