SOLVED MY PROBLEM W/NEF

DEG305
A FEW WEEKS AGO I POSTED A QUESTION ABOUT THE EXTRACTION AND ACCURACY PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING WITH MY NEF HANDY RIFLE WITH BOTH THE .223 AND.243 BARRELS. SINCE THAT POST I POLISHED THE CHAMBERS OF BOTH WITH FINE POLISHING COMPOUND AND RELOADED WITH SMALL BASE DIES THUS RELIEVING 99% OF THE EXTRACTION PROBLEM. AS FOR ACCURACY,IT SEEM THAT THE MORE I SHOOT IT THE BETTER IT'S GETTING. IT'S STILL NO "BENCH REST RIFLE" BUT AT LEAST I CAN HIT A GROUNDHOG,WOODCHUCK,WISTLEPIG, AT 200 YDS WITH IT! TIME WAS WHEN YOU PURCHASED A NEW RIFLE THERE WAS NO NEED TO "BREAK IN" THE BARREL,BUT THEN THE NEF WAS CHEAP$$$$
ANY COMMENTS OR SUGGUSTIONS ARE WELCOMED. THANKS,DEWAYNE [:)]

    I've had extraction problems with the handirifles in 223 & 243 also. I cleaned the chambers well and it seemed to help.

    MOBUCK, DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER CALIBER BARRELS IN THE HANDI RIFLE AND IF SO ANY EXTRACTION PROBLEMS? ALSO WAS WONDERING HOW YOUR .223 AND .243'S WERE AS FAR AS ACCURACY IS? [:)]
