Winchester model 74
Came in the shop, "just stopped firing"...Reviewed it and pulled bolt ass'bly out. Took apart and found the firing pin bent on one end. Replaced with new and hand fitted. Now test fired 25 rounds in five shot increments. First 2 to prove action were single shot, poor extraction. Next set similar, cases would stove pipe, rotate 180 degrees and jam, come out all bent up. 3rd try 5 shots without hesitation. Next 2 sets same as first two. Feed,extract, and eject all seem to be a problem. Everything is spotless, sharp, and mechanically correct.
What am I missing???

I have the bolt apart the firing pin is stuck in the back of the bolt. Can I tap out the sear pin to release it without harming anything? 0 -
