When working the action I find that telling them to lift the bolt handle all the way up all the way back all the way forward all the way down have practice 5 times then 5 more times repetitions repetitions great job

[@NickW.H.]

Definitely, but her running the action wasn’t the problem. The video doesn’t show all the context. There was an issue with the retriever or the spring or something causing the action to not grab the next round. It would load the first round just fine. After the first round was spent it didn’t want to retrieve the second round even when she ran the action the whole way. The other rounds could have been bound up or something that was keeping them from moving to the top. (I’m not a big gun guy so I don’t know all the terminology but hopefully that explained the situation.) I remember my little brother getting so excited his first year hunting. There were elk running through the trees and every time he saw one he’d rack his bolt. He never pulled the trigger but unloaded his rifle 😂. Thanks for watching!
